COACHING

Many prospective vendors have great products but fall short when it comes to selling to or working with retailers. As retail buyers, we used to receive many unsolicited phone calls or emails from prospective vendors each week. Regrettably, most of these prospective vendors were not prepared to talk to us and wasted both our time and theirs. We figured that if someone could tell those vendors what they were doing right and wrong, they would be more successful the next time they called a retail buyer.

But the stark reality is that there almost never is a next time. You have a small window of time in which to get the retail buyer to stop what he’s doing, listen to your sales pitch, and decide whether it’s worth talking to you in further detail. The purpose of our one-on-one coaching is to help you get prepared before you make that important first call to a retailer. You may not get a second chance.

When athletes want to perform to the best of their abilities, they rely on their coaches to offer them sound advice. The same is true in the business world. Our coaches have been on both sides of the desk and can help you navigate through the retail world. You will learn...

• How ready you are to meet with a retail buyer
• How to design, price, and present your product to retailers
• The common mistakes that will cost time, money, and effort
• How to handle common buyer objections
• Compelling strategies for getting appointments
• How to conduct powerful product presentations

What you will learn from us will actually SAVE you money by giving a more realistic idea of what you must have in place to work with retailers of all shapes and sizes. These one-on-one sessions are meant just for you to address your specific needs.

Don't take our word for it.
Here is what our clients have said...

"Thank you so much for your help. I have been wanting to contact a few retailers but haven't done it because I didn't know how to go about it. I appreciate you taking the time to explain the process."

"I learned so much from Yohan. I wish I met him earlier."
