    Adwords visibility

    How to pich to supplier

    sorry about the typo .... "pitch". Anyway ... I just need to clarify that my situation is analgous to selling red wine, bread or say Heinz Beans vs other beans. Will the suppliers be even bothered about their competitors being listed on the same site?
