Stop being the spreadsheet between two systems.
You sit between manufacturer programs and the dealers who actually move the tires and parts. Tread Ready gives that middle a real interface — your dealer network, the manufacturer programs you run against it, and the conversation between both, in one place. Distributors can also sponsor dealer portal access as part of a channel program, so the dealers you serve get core access through the partnership rather than a separate purchase.
The friction is real and specific.
Caught between two sets of rules.
Manufacturer rebate programs in one shape. Dealer promotions you've negotiated in another. Reconciling them by hand every cycle is just the job — until it's the bottleneck.
Dealer comms scattered across inboxes.
Tier letters, program updates, training reminders, deal-specific questions — half over email, half over phone, no shared record of what was promised to whom.
POs priced wrong on arrival.
Dealer cuts a PO at last quarter's price. You catch it on the invoice. Now there's a credit memo to issue and a phone call to make.
Specific answers to the specific friction.
Your dealer network, clearly.
Every dealer, their tier and status, training and certification state, active programs, and claims in flight — one view, filtered to what you own.
A shared space with each dealer.
Documents, announcements, and the back-and-forth that used to live in email — kept with the relationship, with a record of what was sent and when.
POs priced before they're cut.
Dealers see resolved pricing and rebate eligibility in the order screen. Your invoice matches their PO matches the contract.
