Spending & PO Search:
- Which agency spent the most money on iPhones in the last 36 months?
- How much money did that agency spend?
- Which company did they have the largest purchase order (PO) with?
- How much was the largest PO?
- Save your search with the name "Trial_Search_1_Spending"
4. Next, try completing a spending search for your own company, or the products/services you sell. You can also try searching for your competitors. The video below takes you through the steps of running a competitor list.
