QUESTION 1 - WHEN WILL THE MASTERCLASS CALLS BE HELD?
You will receive training modules immediately upon purchase (in case you need more time to prepare your packaging, pricing, etc). Or you can review each weekly Module on Monday and have homework assignments done in time for our Q&A Calls!
Our Q&A Calls will be held on Thursdays or Fridays typically to give you time to prepare for chain store success! All calls will be recorded (and you can get questions answered even if you are not on that particular Q&A Call). Although we highly recommend joining us live if you can make it!!
QUESTION 2 - IS THIS A GROUP COACHING CALL OR DO I GET ONE-ON-ONE COACHING?
Excellent Question! This is a group coaching call -we will add time to the calls if we feel the group needs more attention. Not to worry! We have done these types of calls for almost a decade now...helping people get into retail chains. We know how to structure these powerful Q&A calls!
QUESTION 3 - WHEN WILL WE RECEIVE THE BUYER LIST?
You will receive the list at the end of the 4 weeks. We need to train you and prep you for retail chain store success before you contact these retailers. Our systems work if you follow our strategy. No guarantees however we do see a large portion of our clients succeed if they have a quality product, a willingness to succeed, etc. The list will be updated for you as well! Buyers change jobs constantly - so an updated list will be sent to you. One chain store order can make you millions of dollars - this list is gold!
QUESTION 4 - ARE THERE ANY GUARANTEES THAT MY PRODUCTS GET INTO STORES ONCE I COMPLETE THIS PROGRAM?
Our ultimate goal is to have as many success stories as possible! We truly want you to win!!! However we cannot guarantee that your product will be sold at retail chains - there are too many variables to guarantee you PO's! Sometimes its due to pricing, packaging, timing on when buyers purchase, how competitive your marketplace is, how many reach outs you made, did you follow our strategies, etc. And we have no control of that. The GOOD NEWS is that we have found that if people are willing to do the work and continue to tweak what they are up to - they have a high probability of getting into stores. It's truly your commitment to the process and not giving up until you get chain store orders!
QUESTION 5 - HOW IS THIS MASTERCLASS PROGRAM ANY DIFFERENT THAN YOUR RETAIL MBA TRAINING SYSTEMS?
Every training we provide has it's own unique way of sharing content. In the case of the Masterclass - we spend 30 days with you so you can go after chain stores with a group of like minded individuals and into stores in a fraction of the time. This means it is a very intense program! And it is time constricted. Some people need the intensity and push to get started TODAY! So this training for the Masterclass is DIFFERENT than our Year Long Retail MBA Coaching and Training System. This is NEW content specifically designed for a 4 week masterclass. All of our training systems will support you in getting into retail chains in a fraction of the time. These classes are intense and force you to take action now!
QUESTION 6 - I HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS. IS THERE A WAY TO REACH YOU PRIOR TO JOINING?
Feel Free to reach out to us at karenw@retailmba.com. We will answer as quickly as possible. You can also call us at 1-855-Retail-2. We will do our best to respond as quickly as possible as well - although email tends to be faster! We will be happy to answer your questions!!
QUESTION 7 - I HAVE A NICHE PRODUCT - WILL YOUR SYSTEMS HELP ME? WHAT PRODUCT CATEGORIES DO YOU SUPPORT?
Over the last 10 years or so, we have taught 10's of thousands of product companies across the globe on how to approach, pitch and sell to retail chains...IN EVERY PRODUCT CATEGORY! For instance, food products, clothing, consumer electronics, etc. - you name it- we have worked with them. All of our content is broken down by product type. So you will also know what to do with your specific product. Not to worry!
QUESTION 8 - I HAVE A NEW AMAZON PRODUCT AND I'VE NEVER SOLD ANYTHING IN STORES. WILL YOUR PROGRAM AND COACHING HELP ME?
Amazon Sellers LOVE our training and coaching systems as we have specialized training in all of our programs relevant to their private label path and to help them extend their revenue beyond just Amazon. We work with beginner and advanced Amazon Sellers who are looking for revenue streams that will support them in the long run of their eCommerce business!
QUESTION 9 - THE PROGRAM USED TO BE A 6 WEEK PROGRAM, WHY SHOULD I SIGN UP TO THIS ONE NOW?
Our Masterclasses have been adjusted to 4 week intensives with 90 minute calls (instead of 60 minute calls) on purpose because we have found that it helps our clients even more! We have tested 4 week and 6 week concepts over the years and we found that the more intensive the more excited and committed our clients are to finishing their part of the journey of selling into retail chains. Somehow the longer the class - the more life gets in the way with families and other situations and such. Plus our clients want a streamlined approach to get into stores as quickly as possible - and 4 weeks is what our clients asked for!! We are so excited to support you with selling into retail chains! Join us NOW!!
