SmartsCo: Building better distribution Julie Tucker

Annual sales: $800,000 Two fulltime employees and 40 sales representatives (sub

contracted), designers (sub contracted)

Awarded by many

She publishes themed trivia games and distributes them From 800,000 to $ 1million in sales..

Relies on independent sales representatives to market the products

in bookstores and gift retailers

40 reps (6 companies)

You find them, yousign them up and get them trained in yourproduct, but theyre never really working for you.

Lack of a large product line, competition with reps other product

lines, failure to land any big retailer account (national)..are all

problems that the company faces with their sales-rep distribution

approach


20/22

Your suggestions


21/22

Youcan create an exciting product, but if you

dont get it in front of the public, your product

will die


22/22

Suggestionscontd..

More attention from reps and retailers ifshe improves herpackaging

Reduce price

Adding samples/coupons as value add on

Co-marketing with Starbucks, for her coffee-themed game Fulltime employee to manage the network ofsales reps

Food, Coffee, wine, beer gamesshould be pitched tospecialty store chains to be sold alongside the products thegames are about

Tucker to personally promote the game through industrytrade shows

New channels of distribution, going international..
