ASCD Distributor Terms
The distributor discount is based on the retail/list price (i.e., the nonmember price in the Online Store and in ASCD printed materials). The distributor discount cannot be combined with other discounts, such as quantity discounts.
A signed agreement is required before a distributor may resell and/or advertise ASCD products in a catalog or any other promotional material. All distributors receive an ASCD Distributor ID Number that should be used for placing orders, as well as a Password for placing orders through the Online Store. A form to
request permission to distribute ASCD products is available.
ASCD must be listed as the publisher on any promotional material. Attribution is considered when your contract is renewed.
