Why 6 Ideas?

We Have the Relationships

Our relationships with merchandisers and buyers allow us direct access. These folks get bombarded with unsolicited calls, emails, letters, and samples. When a package or call comes in from us, they know us and will always review the item.

 

Target Marketing

With over 7000 mail order catalogs, where do you begin? We know which catalogs to contact and which ones to stay away from! We work with over 90 major catalogs in the US and Canada. Some of them sell in the European market as well.

 

No Risk

You don’t pay us until your products are selling. Our fee is commission based, so we take the time and effort to market your product with no upfront fees.  You pay us nothing until the orders start coming in. We only accept products that we think will be successful. Therefore your chances are pretty good that your product will be placed in catalogs or on TV.

 

Negotiate the Best Deal

If you make money, we make money. It is in our best interest to help you make money. Many catalogs will try to obtain discounts, allowances and other charges from first time vendors. We know each catalogs’ margin requirements and what concessions are really necessary to make the sale happen.

 

We Manage the Whole Process

we promote your product directly to the decision makers. We send out product samples and follow up. We complete all the appropriate paperwork and vendor setup forms on your behalf. Once your product is placed we deal directly with buyers and re-buyers. We make sure the purchase orders are correct before they arrive at your office. Finally, we handle any ongoing customer service issues, questions or requests for documentation. We will even assist in collections, if needed.
