Selling to Retail – How Much Quantity Does a Chain Store Buyer Buy?
People always ask me how much quantity a chain store buyer buys when selling to retail. They are concerned with the initial orders chain stores might expect. Will the buyer expect millions of dollars worth of product? My answer is NO! Buyers will first test out your product at retailers. And they will increase quantity gradually. So don’t worry so much :). In this training video, I explain how it typically works with chain store retailers. This question comes up all of the time in my workshops and classes!

Dealing with Buyer Rejection
Tired of getting rejected by chain store buyers? Here’s a quick video I created about what manufacturer’s reps (retail sales professionals) know about dealing with buyer rejection when they sell large retailers! Most people don’t realize that all they need is ONE large retailer to purchase their product. It will create a domino effect for their business. So getting rejected by most large retail buyers is irrelevant -because all you need is one of these retailers to say yes!
