selling products

[stuart seller]

I'm a salesman with a good track record and I'm interested in 'doing a dragons den' and pitching new products to retailers within the London area. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I might find inventors or product developers with new products that they would like to sell to retailers? I would really be looking at calling up retailers or approaching them in their stores and getting orders for the product. Perhaps even there is a anyone on here who would like me to have a go selling their product to new markets for them!?

Hi, Is it possible for you to import sth from China and then sell them to the retailers?

I'm really looking for a finished product, that I could go and punt to retailers and they place an order with the supplier through me. I would then take a commission cut but the supplier would arrange the shipping etc. That way I wouldn't have to stockpile or buy stock in a sense, as I'm trying to start this up without a huge initial cash outlay in terms of buying stock.

If the products good, I can sell it. So therefore if you could get me any samples or even a brochure initially then perhaps we could go somewhere with this. I also have contacts in Hong Kong if you are from China and that helps. PM me if you like.

Why not just work as an agent with established brands & products. Otherwise, how do you plan to support sell through?

Thats a good idea. So I would approach companies with products, tell them I will try and punt them to new retailers and take a commission with probably a cut for the salesmen I could employ.

Any idea where I could learn a bit more about setting up an agency that works in this way?
