Bottom Line - Karen Waksman will co-create the most highly targeted distribution plan that yields results for you and your business!
2) Winning the Game of Finding Buyers Contact Information â Create Your Bests List NOW! One of the biggest problems people face when trying to sell to stores is that they can't find the right buyer's contact information at retail stores.
Or they donât know which retail buyers to target that would ensure the biggest return on investment! And rightfully so! If it was easy to find a buyers contact information and know exactly who to approach, everybody would be contacting buyers directly :-). Therefore, Karen Waksman will personally show you exactly how to find buyers contact information FOR YOUR PRODUCT TYPE.
She will show you tips and strategies on how to find the right buyer for your product type - strategies that only sales professionals know about and rarely share! Beyond the buyer list you receive, you will need to still figure out which buyer will most likely buy your product.

3) The âSecret Sauceâ Behind Karen Waksmanâs Retail Success â Making Sure You are Truly Retail-Ready for Chain Store Buyers In order to get a buyer interested in your product, you must prepare your product for chain store success.
Not only do you need packaging, pricing, logistics and many other factors in place in order to work with major retailers, you also need to do the necessary research to help you pitch to retailers. Some of the most brilliant product companies get rejected by retailers, simply because they werenât quite ready to approach retail buyers.
Therefore, Karen Waksman will personally review your product and tell you exactly where you are missing the boat for retail chains. If itâs packaging - she will tell you what to adjust for your particular product, if itâs pricing, she will share insights on what would probably work for retail chains, if itâs your product itself - she will provide assistance in figuring out what to do or which product to pick for retail chains. She is here to support!
And she will provide a basic outline on her assessment by the end of the 30 day program! One product review per company. Bottom Line - Karen Waksman will assess your product and give you the most effective plan to prepare your product for chain store success!
4) Perfecting Your Pitch and Interacting With Buyers - We have seen the most brilliant product companies get rejected by retailers, simply because they couldn't pitch their product effectively. Don't make this mistake with your business! During this Elite Bootcamp Program, you will learn how to develop the right pitch for your product type.
You will learn what a buyer wants to know about your product and how to communicate your pitch in such a way that the buyer will be more inclined to buy.
Karen Waksman will support your efforts by reviewing your pitch and helping you create the perfect pitch for chain store retailers! This will be critical to your success with retailers!

Common Questions People Ask About This Masterclass!
Â
QUESTION 1 - WHEN WILL THE MASTERCLASS CALLS BE HELD?
You will receive training modules immediately upon purchase (in case you need more time to prepare your packaging, pricing, etc). Or you can review each weekly Module on Monday and have homework assignments done in time for our Q&A Calls!
Our Q&A Calls will be held on Thursdays or Fridays typically to give you time to prepare for chain store success! All calls will be recorded (and you can get questions answered even if you are not on that particular Q&A Call). Although we highly recommend joining us live if you can make it!!
QUESTION 2 - IS THIS A GROUP COACHING CALL OR DO I GET ONE-ON-ONE COACHING?
Excellent Question! This is a group coaching call -we will add time to the calls if we feel the group needs more attention. Not to worry! We have done these types of calls for almost a decade now...helping people get into retail chains. We know how to structure these powerful Q&A calls!
QUESTION 3 - WHEN WILL WE RECEIVE THE BUYER LIST?
You will receive the list at the end of the 4 weeks. We need to train you and prep you for retail chain store success before you contact these retailers. Our systems work if you follow our strategy. No guarantees however we do see a large portion of our clients succeed if they have a quality product, a willingness to succeed, etc.
The list will be updated for you as well! Buyers change jobs constantly - so an updated list will be sent to you. One chain store order can make you millions of dollars - this list is gold!
QUESTION 4 - ARE THERE ANY GUARANTEES THAT MY PRODUCTS GET INTO STORES ONCE I COMPLETE THIS PROGRAM?
Our ultimate goal is to have as many success stories as possible! We truly want you to win!!! However we cannot guarantee that your product will be sold at retail chains - there are too many variables to guarantee you PO's! Sometimes its due to pricing, packaging, timing on when buyers purchase, how competitive your marketplace is, how many reach outs you made, did you follow our strategies, etc. And we have no control of that.
The GOOD NEWS is that we have found that if people are willing to do the work and continue to tweak what they are up to - they have a high probability of getting into stores. It's truly your commitment to the process and not giving up until you get chain store orders!
QUESTION 5 - HOW IS THIS MASTERCLASS PROGRAM ANY DIFFERENT THAN YOUR RETAIL MBA TRAINING SYSTEMS?
Every training we provide has it's own unique way of sharing content. In the case of the Masterclass - we spend 30 days with you so you can go after chain stores with a group of like minded individuals and into stores in a fraction of the time. This means it is a very intense program! And it is time constricted. Some people need the intensity and push to get started TODAY!
So this training for the Masterclass is DIFFERENT than our Year Long Retail MBA Coaching and Training System. This is NEW content specifically designed for a 4 week masterclass. All of our training systems will support you in getting into retail chains in a fraction of the time. These classes are intense and force you to take action now!
QUESTION 6 - I HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS. IS THERE A WAY TO REACH YOU PRIOR TO JOINING?
Feel Free to reach out to us at [email protected]. We will answer as quickly as possible. You can also call us at 1-855-Retail-2. We will do our best to respond as quickly as possible as well - although email tends to be faster! We will be happy to answer your questions!!
QUESTION 7 - I HAVE A NICHE PRODUCT - WILL YOUR SYSTEMS HELP ME? WHAT PRODUCT CATEGORIES DO YOU SUPPORT?
Over the last 10 years or so, we have taught 10's of thousands of product companies across the globe on how to approach, pitch and sell to retail chains...IN EVERY PRODUCT CATEGORY! For instance, food products, clothing, consumer electronics, etc. - you name it- we have worked with them. All of our content is broken down by product type. So you will also know what to do with your specific product. Not to worry!
QUESTION 8 - I HAVE A NEW AMAZON PRODUCT AND I'VE NEVER SOLD ANYTHING IN STORES. WILL YOUR PROGRAM AND COACHING HELP ME?
Amazon Sellers LOVE our training and coaching systems as we have specialized training in all of our programs relevant to their private label path and to help them extend their revenue beyond just Amazon. We work with beginner and advanced Amazon Sellers who are looking for revenue streams that will support them in the long run of their eCommerce business!
QUESTION 9 - THE PROGRAM USED TO BE A 6 WEEK PROGRAM, WHY SHOULD I SIGN UP TO THIS ONE NOW?
Our Masterclasses have been adjusted to 4 week intensives with 90 minute calls (instead of 60 minute calls) on purpose because we have found that it helps our clients even more! We have tested 4 week and 6 week concepts over the years and we found that the more intensive the more excited and committed our clients are to finishing their part of the journey of selling into retail chains. Somehow the longer the class - the more life gets in the way with families and other situations and such.
Plus our clients want a streamlined approach to get into stores as quickly as possible - and 4 weeks is what our clients asked for!! We are so excited to support you with selling into retail chains! Join us NOW!!
