Cut costs, gain full spend visibility, and a scalable procurement process without hiring a procurement team. Learn how to build a lightweight purchasing process that actually works.

Finance leaders are stretched thin. You’re not just managing the budget, you’re owning spending decisions across the business. And procurement? It’s your hidden shortcut to fast savings.

That’s why we teamed up with Michael Shields, VP of Procurement at Tropic, to build a no-fluff, 4-step plan you can run in just 100 days - no extra headcount, no complicated rollout. Just real savings and a process that actually scales. 

What this eBook will help you discover in 100 days (or less)

This isn’t just strategy, it’s a checklist you can take straight to your next team meeting. Here’s what you’ll walk away with:

  • Knowing exactly where your money’s going - and what surprise renewals are lurking.
  • Find smarter, leaner tools your teams will love (and your CFO will thank you for).
  • Use insider-level benchmarks to negotiate like a pro and stop overpaying.
  • Steal our plug-and-play procurement policy that drives buy-in, not pushback.
“When you lead with data (rather than your gut), you spend smarter, move faster, and negotiate from a position of strength.” - Michael Shields, VP of Procurement, Tropic.
