Do you have a product that is perfect to sell to the military?
If you are looking for new revenue streams for your product, then why not sell a product to the military?
Companies have made many millions of dollars selling to military stores throughout the world. It’s a great opportunity that no one ever thinks about!
To learn more, check out this short training video I created on the subject.
Learn everything you need to know to sell to the military
With that said, let’s talk about the military which has a really interesting niche retail market that you can sell to!
And I’m not talking about selling guns or military apparel. I’m talking about you selling your gift items, your food items, your whatever types of items that you have that you’re trying to sell to these retail outlets in the military.
Why you should be selling to the military
So, let me give you an example of that. So, let’s talk about an organization called AAFES. It’s the Army and Air Force Exchange Service. So, it’s AAFES. And essentially what that is is an organization that’s basically run by the military. And so what happens is is when a military member gets deployed to remote locations, right? So, the troop gets deployed. What they do is they go into various locations, it could be anywhere in the US or across the world, well, what happens is AAFES has set up retail stores, outlets, and so forth in these different locations.
So, not only can the troops buy things that they need, but also the military families and their troops can actually get supported as well.
What you can sell to military AAFES stores
And so, I’m talking bookstores, gas stations, gift stores, department stores. I’m talking about all sorts of different types of retailers in these different locations. And so, there’s lots of money to be made in the military industry because they are constantly buying new products for large volumes of locations. And if you can grab a military market segment, you can actually sell lots of your products to that market.
There are many advantages once you become a military vendor
So again, really what it comes down to is that the military has retail locations throughout the country and the world, and they have lots of buying power, and it’s very similar to selling to the retail chains because again, what we’re trying to do is sell large volumes of your product to the military.
Once you are selling to other realtors you will be more likely to be able to sell to the military
And if you can do that through selling to military stores, why not do that? So, that’s just one example. AAFES, there’s also, the Navy has a retail outlet as well, a organization. And so, again, selling to these guys is very similar to the retail is selling to chain stores and so forth. And I teach all about that in my Retail MBA program, how to approach, pitch, and sell to retail buyers, including the military market and so forth.
There is some finessing that you have to do when you sell to military
So, anyways, the good news here is that there’s new ways of generating revenue. And one of these ways is selling to the military market. If you want to learn more about AAFES, you can check out aafes.com and it’s fascinating. I mean, they have so many different stores, so much money. I think they’re the 47th largest retailer in the world or something like that or in the US at least.
Learn how to approach, pitch & sell products to military stores
And so big money there. And so, anyways, my goal here was just to get you cooking and thinking about how you can differentiate yourself from the competition and how you can also make more money. And I’m sure that a lot of your competition is not thinking about selling to retailers in the military market. So, anyways, food for thought there.
