Isn't that generally true? A company making a billion widgets per year likely gets a way better deal on the materials required to make them than a company making only ten thousand.
There’s a big difference when you run the marketplace where those deals are being brokered and set the pricing for discounts and deals.
When you run the marketplace and make sweetheart deals, you change the terms of everyone else in the market. But if you don’t tell everyone in the category about your marketplace changes, they become disadvantaged and yet they would never suspect a thing if you don’t tell them.
So it’s less like a cheaper input widget for a scale operation and more like the terms and conditions change but just for yourself or one customer that nobody else even knows is happening.
