Your Ambassador of Quan

So you have this incredible product that you’ve created, right? And you want to sell the heck out it and see it on store shelves everywhere, right?

But where do you start? How in the world do you get retail stores to start carrying your product?

That’s exactly what I wondered back in 2004 when I brought to market two products I’d designed, Swaddleaze and Blankeaze.

I just started calling stores that I thought might want to carry it. And some of them bit right away. But they asked me all kinds of questions that I had no answers to – what are your minimums, do you have a line sheet I can see, what are your terms?

You should have seen me, Googling on the fly and making stuff up – while I was on the phone with them!

But because I didn’t have my “retail details” ready, I underpriced my product, told them they could order however many they wanted and let them pay net 60 days.

I totally screwed myself.

And I don’t want that to happen to you.

In Jerry Maguire, Cuba Gooding Jr.’s Rod Tidwell tells Jerry, “You’re my ambassador of quan, man.”

Jerry has no idea what quan is, so Rod explains, “It’s not just the ‘coin.’ It’s the…’the quan’.

Jerry says, “That’s your word?”

Rod answers, “Yeah, man, it means love, respect… and the dollars too. The package. The quan.”

And that’s what I’m here to do – to be your ambassador of quan.

To help you get your product into retailers and get the coin, the love, the respect for the product that you’ve put your blood, sweat and tears into.

So, I’ve put together a workshop that delivers everything you need to get your product into retailers - video tutorials, worksheets, special reports, line sheet templates from a graphic designer who normally charges $60 for them, an hour-long interview with a successful 6-figure store owner and much more.

I put into this workshop all the stuff that I wish someone had given me back when I was pitching retailers.
