Hi guys and gals,

I am looking for a chance to interact with those big retailers as Halfords, Ripspeed, POTN etc. which sell aftermarket products for cars.

Do you have any suggestion and comments on how I could get my first step to generate the interest from them?

Currently I have done lots of promotion work with small retailers and seem to get a very good feedback from them. The sales email I have sent out even get instant interest and order!! Will the big retailer work the same way?

Previous I had tried using one of our local commission based agent, but he seem getting no where with those big guys out there.

I have deeply believe the quality, price for consumer and profit that the retailer for our product is well rounded package. Feel like just go out and approach those big guys and get our product to their shelf!

Any advise is appreciated!! Thanks

P/S: Please check the product at www.edenz.co.uk

I think the bigger retailers have a "buyer" that buys in stock fo all outlets - that would be the person you'd need to get in front of to pitch - although I know sod all about retail

Phone the head office, be frienfdy to a gatekeepr and get the name. Call back the next day asking for the person by name and to make an appointment.
