How To Have A Product Sold At A Store??

Question

I want to have a store where I live sell Faygo soda.

I'm thinking of maybe trying to get Albertsons to sell it or a local music store sell it.

I'm considering the music store because Faygo is tied in with Insane Clown Posse [ICP] and maybe I could get the store that sells their albums to also sell a drink ICP represents.

How would I go about trying to get Faygo sold??

Would I contact Faygo soda or would I contact the music store/Albertsons??

Also, which would be my best bet, the local music store or Ablertsons?

Thanks!!

And I hope this question makes sense!

:D

Answer 1

I don't know about soda, but I like to read a magazine called Writer's Digest. When I lived in NH the only place to get it was in Concord, about 45 minutes from me. I tried to get stores near me to sell it, and what I found was that a locally owned mom and pop was the easiest.

I was able to talk to the owner in person, and he ordered one copy a month just for me.

In your case, call Faygo, get their distributor's number, then call them, ask if anyone in your area carries it, if not, ask for a store near you that the distributor deals with, and approach that store about getting some in.

Answer 2

ive asked stores to please carry certain products in the past after you asked they contact the company  if they think it might be a product they can sell to others they will give it a try it doesn't hurt to ask. but you'll get faster and better response asking the store to help you. ask and keep bugging them if they have a response yet
