Problems to Solve

Distributor Selection

Distributor Selection and Management

Making the decision on the correct go to market partner is critical. Getting the right one to say yes can be challenging. The way you work with them after they do will dictate your success. I provide advice, strategies and introductions so you can act with confidence. 

Go to Market Strategy

Go to Market Strategy

From goal setting, to budgeting, to planning, to organizational design, it's critical to properly allocate your resources and focus. My experience will allow you to skip mistakes that so many other founders make.  

Pricing

Pricing Optimization

Pricing is one of the most important things you'll decide but it goes much further than just your FOB and suggested shelf price. While many founders have to ask the distributors what the pricing should look like and then negotiate from a position of weakness, I'll help you to show up with a detailed price structure that will show the distributor's blended margin which will allow you to smartly negotiate lower depletion allowances.
