Retail MBA Is the most comprehensive training program available today on how to get your products on the shelves of chain store retailers.

Retail MBA was developed by Retail Sales Expert Karen Waksman. Karen sold millions of units to the world’s largest retailers. During this time she developed a time-tested proven sales formula that helped her get products into chain stores in various categories.

Since then, Karen has taught her sales formula to 10,000+ product companies across the country on the subject of selling to chain stores at places such as the US Patent Office, Stanford University, CES (Consumer Electronics Show) and more!!

At this point you are probably asking yourself….“I’m not a sales person. Can I really get my own products on the shelves of the world’s largest retailers??”

Yes!!!

Just check out Chuck’s story, he had questions about how to get his new product on the shelves of retailers…He was wondering…How do I get in contact with a buyer?  What do I say when I get a meeting?  What will they expect of me? I’m not a sales person at all, can I really get my products into retailers?

After investing in the Retail MBA program, Chuck followed the Step-by-Step process and got his product into a 1,000 store chain in less than 2 WEEKS!!!

Look what Retail MBA did for Chuck!
Here’s another example… Wei-Shin Lai, MD, is the CEO of AcousticSheep and she used Retail MBA to get her products into a chain store within a FEW MONTHS! Following the Retail MBA system works! Watch her story below….

“If I had to describe Karen Waksman’s information in one word it would be Revolutionary! Karen takes you through the complicated and bewildering world of getting a product into the big chains and breaks it downs in a way to make it seem like child’s play. What she has done is nothing short of the cracking of the DaVinci code of the retail marketing world.

…Meeting With Wal-Mart

 

“Going into my first meeting with Wal-mart, I felt much more confident after using Retail MBA to help structure my presentation. I’ve found that Retail MBA is the most comprehensive guide available about how to get started as a retail chain supplier.” – Michael, Founder of the PlateTopper (now a Wal-mart Vendor!)

The Story Behind The Story And How It Can Help With You!

 

If you have a great product and a conviction to succeed, then our training programs will show you EXACTLY how to get your products on the shelves of retailers.

My name is Karen Waksman and I am a Manufacturer’s Rep that’s turned into an Author, Speak and Consultant. I have sold millions of units to the world’s largest retailers and now dedicate my time to teaching 1000’s of product companies across the country at places such as Stanford University, the Consumer Electronics Show, National Hardware Show, etc.

And what I realized quickly after I started in this business is that selling to retailers is easier than most people think.

Why? Buyers across all categories work off of the same principles and standards. They are in the business of buying! If you have a product that you believe should be in stores, Buyer’s need to know about it. It’s their job!

The only challenge most people have is figuring out HOW to get the Buyer’s attention. And if they get the Buyer’s attention, HOW do they get the Buyer to actually buy?!

This is why I decided to write the Retail MBA Training Program outlining everything a person needs to know about selling to Major Retailers.

And I wrote this training program with the intention of empowering anyone with a conviction to succeed (and a cool product idea) to actualize their dreams by selling their products to the World’s Largest Retailers.

You see, I’ve sold products to retailers for years, and I know something that most people don’t…

I know for a fact that you do not need sales experience to sell to Major Retailers. And I also know that you do NOT need Buyer relationships to get your products on the shelves of these retailers.

I know this because of my extensive experience working with Buyers. Buyers do not care about sales strategies. They care about buying the ‘right’ product. And most people don’t realize that there are simple ways to position your product as the ‘right’ product.

I also know that you do not need existing buyer relationships to sell to retailers. I know this because I used the same strategies for years and sold products to retailers in categories that I have never sold before!

You have to understand, when I started in this business, I was just like you. I had no buyer relationships to speak of and had no clue as to how to get my products on the shelves of Major Retailers. But I had a conviction to succeed and a true desire to figure out how to get Buyers to buy from me.

And I wish I could say that it was easy to get my products on the shelves of Major Retailers when I first started. But it wasn’t easy at all. Actually, everything I tried while attempting to sell my products to Major Retailers had the opposite effect. Buyers actually REFUSED to buy from me and I could not figure out why!

It turns out, Buyers wanted to be approached in a very specific way. And they wanted my products to be prepared in a very particular way as well. So after years of trying every possible approach to sell my products to Major Retailers, one of my strategies finally worked!

And once I figured out what Buyers cared about and how to ultimately get them to buy from me, my business took off. And I’m proud to say that I’ve sold millions of units to Major Retailers over the years and now teach other people how to do what I do.

So, I’m a true believer that anyone can get their products on the shelves of the World’s Largest Retailers.

If I can sell products to Major Retailers, than so can you!

The only difference is that now you don’t have to spend precious time figuring out the best way to sell your products to Major Retailers.

All you have to do is follow the simple formula that I’ve outlined in my Step-By-Step Guide and you will see for yourself that getting your products into Major Retailers is absolutely possible for ANYONE!

But Can Ordinary People Really Get Their Simple Products Into Major Retail Chains? Check out these Big Retail Chain Success Stories

 

#1, Every kid wanted one! A husband and wife in Pennsylvania created a simple toy from parts found at the hardware store. 250 MILLION Sold through worldwide retail chain stores! Can you guess what this product is? It’s the Slinky! Richard James, a naval engineer, created the Slinky by chance, and with the help of his wife, sold their first Slinky Toy Product at a Department Store. The Slinky was a huge hit and this husband and wife team made millions!

#2, Bear Naked: The product name for a very yummy granola. Two buddies mixed up the secret recipe on a kitchen stove. Today, you’ll find it on the shelves of 10,000 retail stores! Brendan Synnott and Kelly Flatley were working regular jobs but had a passion for their product. So they invested their time and effort into selling their products to retailers. At first they started small, but then expanded to large chain stores. And now they are making millions with their product idea!

#3, Boogie Wipes: A group of moms found a simple solution to their kid’s runny noses. Now, the mom’s are enjoying the smell of sweet success. Boogie Wipes are available in 40,000 retail stores nationwide! Mindee Doney and Julie Pickens developed saline nose wipes called Boogie Wipes® in 2007 as a solution for their kids’ runny, rough, red noses. Their first Major Retail account was Fred Meyer’s and now they are making millions!

#4, Gotta Wuvit: A stay-at-home mom turns a fabulous product idea into a multi-million dollar business. Kim Levine created her Wuvit product with a sewing machine at home! Her major break came from selling her Wuvit products to Saks Department Stores on a national level. Now she sells millions of units to Major Retailers!

These are just a few examples of how ordinary people have sold their own products to Major Retailers. Will your product be the next great story? It’s up to you! Learn as much as you can about selling to Major Retailers and you will be one step ahead of everyone else!

So Is Retail MBA Right For You?

 

If You Fall Into Any One Of These Categories, Then the Retail MBA Training Program Can Help You:

#1, I’ve given birth to a brilliant idea—now what?

Even if your product is still an idea or you are currently developing your product, my information will steer you away from the pitfalls and traps. Knowing what buyers want is a big advantage. You need this information NOW as you develop your product and you will need it when you are ready to talk to buyers!

#2, I’ve created a product, but I have no idea if it is ready for Major Retailers!

Find out exactly what you need to do to prepare your product for Major Retail Success. Learn what it takes to get your products into Major Retailers. Understand what Buyers pay attention to and what makes them more inclined to buy. Learn the basics of how to manufacture your product, how to package you product, what to do if you have a handcrafted product and much more!

#3, I have a finished product ready for retail. But, why can’t I get the attention of buyers at retail chain stores?

You know your product will sell like crazy if you can just get the big retail chains to buy. So you call the chains and leave voice mails. You get no response. You mail them everything you have—still no reply. Not one reply. This is typical of what happens to almost everyone that doesn’t know the “secret knock.”

Through sheer determination some people eventually break into the big chain stores. Those that make it often say it took them 2 to 3 years. And then there are those that quietly give up. They simply keep plodding their way to work and back every day. Thanks to my step-by-step guide, you won’t have to put yourself through this frustration!

#4, I have a product, but I don’t JUST want to sell my products to the big chain stores. I also want to sell my products to small retailers, online retailers and catalogs too!

The beauty of my Step-By-Step Training Program is that you can utilize my strategies to sell to small retailers, online retailers and catalogs as well! I will show you how to get access to the names of the decision makers as well as what to say to them to get them to buy! This is perfect for those of you who have handcrafted products or if you just want to make as much money as possible through every retail avenue!

#5, I don’t want to sell myself, I want to hire a Manufacturer’s Rep!

The best part of Retail MBA is that it is the PERFECT sales training system for hiring new sales reps! You can train new and/or existing Manufacturer’s Reps on how to get your products sold at stores. The learning curve for selling to Chain Stores can take several years! Why not reduce your time to market by hiring more sales reps and train them in a fraction of the time?!

Plus the more knowledge you have when it comes to selling to chain stores, the better the opportunity for you to grow your business. Top notch Manufacturer’s Reps want to work with companies that make it easy for them to generate revenue quickly. Therefore, the only way to do this is to set yourself up for success by knowing how to prepare your product for chain store success!
