Is it better to leave it to one company or to several?
It is generally best to avoid placing orders with separate firms, as it is expensive and inefficient.
The measures may be disparate and inefficient because they are not aligned with each other. It also tends to add unnecessary costs that are not originally necessary, such as costs for reporting and communication. In the worst case scenario, there is also the risk of mutual imposition of responsibility among contractors.

If you keep adding more and more as you are sold more and more, you will find that the monthly cost tends to grow.
However, not a small part of the cost breakdown is personnel expenses for communication, such as meetings, reporting, and communication.
This should essentially be as little as possible.
So, it is best and above all “easy” to havea single point of contact as much as possible, so that everything works with one contact.
If the cost and the time of the staff can be reduced in this way, more time can be allocated for sales promotion. The cost of sales promotion can also be raised by streamlining the process through the use of IT, which will be discussed later.
