The procurement team, responsible for sourcing and pricing the services the company buys, can introduce significant barriers to enterprise startups. Sellers must navigate a thicket of data concerns and increasing price sensitivities, among other issues, with procurement teams that may have little familiarity with AI. Enterprise software deals are taking longer to close compared with last year, per a September survey from New York-based SAAS financing startup Capchase. "That's leading procurement teams to ask sellers 'what works here, tell me where I could have unanticipated outcomes?'" Nemeth said procurement teams want to be educated and help see deals through.

Tupperware Brands boxes itself into a corner

TORONTO, April 10 (Reuters Breakingviews) - Tupperware Brands’ (TUP.N) options are looking less airtight. As with other direct selling companies, it casts doubt over its business model, as well as how speedily it can remake itself as consumer habits shift. An earnings misstatement, which has left it late in filing its annual report, could cause creditors to declare Tupperware has violated its debt covenants. Even if Tupperware can appease its creditors or find new investors, the rise of e-commerce has dented the fortunes of companies that lean on direct selling. Compared with the company’s heyday, customers have more options for food storage, more places to buy from, and less time for Tupperware parties.
New York CNN —Tupperware shares fell nearly 40% in early trading Monday following a bleak warning that its future is looking murky. Tupperware said it won’t have enough cash to fund its operations if it doesn’t secure additional money. The company said it is exploring potential layoffs, and it’s reviewing its real estate portfolio for potential money-saving efforts. The New York Stock Exchange also warned that Tupperware’s stock is in danger of being de-listed for not filing a required annual report. Tupperware (TUP) said the entry into Target is part of the brand’s reinvention, which includes plans to grow the business through multiple retail channels and get its products in front of younger consumers who’ve never even heard of Tupperware (TUP) parties.
New York CNNBusiness —Tupperware wants to be where the cool kids play. That means shedding its throwback to its Mad Men-era image, and positioning Tupperware products as buzz-worthy, high-utility and with an environmentally-friendly purpose. Another idea is to collaborate with a fridge manufacturer to have a line of refrigerators that come outfitted with Tupperware storage containers inside. Tupperware containers, in a way, also could be helping to also reduce food waste. “We’d like to think those were many meals that were stored in the fridge in Tupperware products.”
