How does Downstream differ from a broker?

At Downstream Marketplace, we believe the traditional waste broker model is outdated. Traditional waste brokers may send orders your way, but they often hurt your brand by acting as a middleman between you and your customers. Our platform is designed to help you grow your brand, empower customers to choose your services directly, and provide advanced tools for price optimization and customer loyalty. Here’s how we stand out:

1. We Grow Your Brand

  • Brand Visibility: Unlike traditional waste brokers who promote their own brand, we focus on growing your brand. Your company gets the spotlight, helping you build a strong reputation and increase recognition in the market.

  • Direct Marketing: Our platform allows you to showcase your services directly to potential customers, enhancing your brand’s visibility and reach.

2. Customers Select Your Company, Not Downstream

  • Customer Choice: On Downstream Marketplace, customers have the power to select the waste management and equipment rental companies that best meet their needs. They see your brand, your services, and choose you directly, rather than going through an anonymous broker.

  • Personalized Service: This direct selection process ensures that customers build a relationship with your company, fostering trust and long-term partnerships.

3. Advanced Price Optimization and Loyalty Tools

  • AI-Generated Pricing: We offer a suite of price optimization software that leverages AI to help you set the most competitive prices based on market factors, waste types, contractual obligations, volume, and more.

  • Geospatial Pricing: Our tools use geospatial data to optimize your pricing strategies, ensuring you offer competitive rates tailored to specific locations.

  • Customer Loyalty Programs: Our platform includes features to increase customer loyalty, such as personalized promotions and discounts, helping you retain customers and encourage repeat business.

By choosing Downstream Marketplace, you're not just getting a service provider – you're partnering with a platform that’s dedicated to growing your business, enhancing your brand, and providing the tools you need to succeed. Experience the Downstream difference and take your business to new heights.
