The objective of this project is to facilitate greater visibility into the independent retail market. You will find the sales templates here as well as a button to add a document. This is where you will provide your communication and sales reporting quarterly.
This portal will be used to easily keep track of progress as we move forward with the introduction of the product and company to the network.
We hope you are having a good day so far. These are some of the people that have shown interest by clicking to learn more about the line through the eblast, however they did not enter their information in the lead form once they landed on the sell sheet. I am able to pull the emails associated with the accounts from my end. Please keep detailed communication notes while you are reaching out as they may not all be a good fit for your product line. As we discussed on our Product Education Call, we are going to need reporting from your end, which you can upload directly to your dashboard. Please note that the contacts were contacted through the retail association and are not familiar with our company Mr. Checkout.
We try to make this as easy as possible with templates you can find here: https://mrcheckout.net/sales-report-templates/

Hello,
Thank you for uploading a report with the initial follow up you’ve conducted. I see that you’re off to a good start and suggest reaching out by phone to all of these contacts as we’ve found email follow up to be underwhelming for sales. I see that four of the sample request contacts emails have bounced and would also include them in your phone follow up to ensure no opportunities will be missed.
Thank you again for the updates and I look forward to seeing how your follow up progresses.
Hi. I’m not sure I understand. We paid and onboarding fee to get our products sold by MrCheckout. Now you’re saying your job is done and we need to call each contact ourselves? That would be like buying a database rather than partnering with you to promote our products as originally stated.
Hello Sebastian,
I’m sorry for the disconnect regarding our program however we do our best to convey the details of our program within our onboarding process and during our product education call. During this call we discussed that we would be introducing the line and sending the results for your company to begin your follow up with. Our team are not a sales force and we facilitate the relationships however it is up to you to connect and build the relationships with these retailers.
I see you’ve begun your follow up with the delivered leads by sending out an introductory email however we would suggest reaching out by phone going forward to ensure you are getting connected. We’ve found email follow up to be underwhelming for sales as your email could be ending up in their spam folders. Please continue your follow up and keep me updated. Once we see the feedback you receive, we can discuss continuing our introductions.
I understand you’re not a workforce, but you should provide some value for the $2,500 we paid. So far we’ve seen 7 leads (which I can’t prove interested because you sent the mails) plus 4 bouncing emails. As you can imagine we don’t feel the service is paying back the $2,500. I hope we can do something about it.
Hello Sebastian,
Our team would be happy to move forward and continue our introductions as we discussed on our product education call, however we’re hoping to retrieve as much feedback as possible from the Eblast introduction leads before doing so.
Please be sure you’re reaching out by phone to the provided contacts and once we see what feedback you receive, we can then move forward. Please note, we ask that you contact each retailer at least 3-5 times before considering them to be dead leads. We know that these retailers are typically in and out of their offices and it can be difficult to get them on the phone on the first call. We’ve also found email follow up to be underwhelming for sales as your email could be ending up in their spam folders.
Thank you and I look forward to your continued updates.
Just checking in to see how your outreach is going with the list of interested leads we sent. Can you please send me the details notes from your outreach?
These conversations are crucial for our operation and allow us to get a better understanding of how the conversations are going.
The details required are dates of outreach, method of outreach (call,text,email) and details of the final outcome.
If you did send or plan to send samples, please be sure to include the dates the samples are sent and are delivered. Please also include the follow up details on how the retailers felt about the samples.
We require quarterly reporting at a minimum to keep our agreement active and having this information will help us determine who the best retailers are for your product and company.
Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to hearing from you.
We hope you’re doing well. Would you mind sending me the reports on the leads we sent over. As we discussed on our product education call, we require communication reporting every quarter at minimum. This helps us get a better understanding of how the conversations are going and if they are or are not a good fit for your product. Once we receive this information, we can then follow up on our end as to why it wasn’t a good fit and then regroup and find the retailers that may be a better market fit. This is also one of your roles and responsibilities listed your contract with us.
We try to make this as easy as possible with templates you can find here: https://mrcheckout.net/sales-report-templates/
Please make sure to include if the retailer decided it was not the right fit so that we will be able to regroup and try to find the right retailers to make a better market fit.
After meeting with my team this morning we have come up with the following conclusion that without reporting and communication as stipulated in the agreement, the contract is considered terminated by your company. This is not the outcome that we wanted at the onset of this agreement and we do our best to convey this in our agreement, through this dashboard and conversations early on. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavors.
