The Importance of DPI, and knowing what it is, and who participates.
DPIstands for Diamond Points Incentive program. The primary objective of DPI is to help offset
costs and encourage member companies to bring more of their showroom decision makers to the annual Luxury Showplace meeting. A vendor who attends the Luxury Showplace realizes a stronger bene t in networking and building long-term relationships with the individuals who in uence the purchase of their products. The vendor bene ts in meeting with more people for the same costs and time spent at the meeting.
The tremendous membership support of the DPI program through Omni is due primarily to the fact
that principal owners can offset costs to attend the spring meeting and include more of their showroom employees. This will help build closer-working relationships with the supporting vendors. Meeting attendance is 97% of the membership. The same will
be true in support of the Diamond Purchase Incentive through LPG Member Payment of DPI: Members must attend the Annual Luxury Showplace to receive their DPI Program credits. This bene ts the supporting Vendors in ensuring maximum participation.
Vendor contributions may be only a fractional percentage of sales. Promotional Opportunities: vendors supporting the DPI program have the ability of offering promotional programs that can be tailored to their needs without disturbing the market (i.e., 10 times DPI program 1⁄2%, for product or period).
Reporting to Members: Those vendors who support the DPI program are reported in a statement periodically to the membership with the points earned for their purchases. Those not supporting DPI also appear on statement with a zero “0” designation.
Point Values: Point Values are determined by the total contribution percentage of each participating Vendor. 100% of the DPI funds are returned to the member.
