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.
Good afternoon,
I have a couple of items.
1. In looking through the dashboard I see the sell sheet needs to be created, who will be handling this?
2. Our second product will be available by the end of this week. It is our Regenos Bone Health Collagen. I will be sending details separately to Paula Roche.
Thanks,
Philip
Hello Philip,
Thank you for reaching out. I am you account manager and it’s a pleasure to meet you. Paula will be reaching out via email regarding the content needed to create our sell sheet. If you’d like to move forward with our product education call, we can discuss this page in detail so you’ll know what to expect and how it will be used.
Michelle Neal
Hi Michelle,
It is nice to meet you, apologies I did not see your response. Yes we would like to go forward with the product education call. Please let me know when this can be set up, I will be on the call as well as Jim Kent.
Thanks,
Philip
Hello Phillip,
I hope you’re doing well today. Thank you for reaching back out regarding our product education call. I’ve sent you an email with a link to schedule this call. Please be sure to check your spam folder as it could have landed there by mistake. My email is Michelle.neal@mrcheckoutdistributors.com and you should have received two emails from me at this time.
Please let me know if you still do not see my email and I’ll provide the link here for you instead.
Thank you and have a great rest of your day.
Hi Michelle,
Thank you for your time on the call today. We are both excited about getting started with y’all. Can you check to see if the sales sheet informaiton was received? The information was provided and sent to you on April 8th.
Please let us know if you do not have it so that we can resubmit the information.
Thanks,
Philip
Hi Michelle,
Can you confirm that the eBlast has been scheduled? Once scheduled and done, will we see something above in the Marketing section of our Dashboard?
Thanks,
Philip
We hope you are having a good day so far. Our blast has been launched and 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.

Cheers!
Hello,
Thank you for this update and I look forward to seeing what feedback you receive.
Thank you and have a great rest of your day.
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.
Emailed to account manager:
Hi Michelle,
Attached please find our lead tracking template.
Regrettably, we have not been able to close any sales with the leads provided. There has been outreach and I have spoken with several leads, emails have also gone out with product information. The lack of interest is based on a couple of things, first – not a good fit for our product. While collagen is sold in many different retail stores, it will not necessarily sell in a convenience store, where most customers go in for coffee, soda, beer or snacks. Several of the leads provided are for grocery stores, they sell produce and food items, not food supplements like collagen. Second – not understanding the product. While a lot of people have heard about collagen, not everybody understands it and if the store owner does not get it, they will not be able to sell it to their customers.
We are looking for independent retailers, those who sell healthy foods would be the best fit. General stores could work, it they offer some kinds of health products. We are both willing and able to educate consumers (and store owners) but not all store owners are looking for new product training. Any insights you can provide will be appreciated.
Best regards,
Philip
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out with this report and the information regarding the preferred retail targets. I’ve added the report to the dashboard for you and please remember to reach out to me using the project discussion going forward. Here is the link to the dashboard for your convenience: https://mrcheckout.com/panorama/best-4-you-brands-llc/
I see from the report you’ve done all you can with these contacts and we can move forward with our continued introductions. I will ask our team to begin making calls to the retailers within our association that match the Healthy food/supplement categories. Once they’ve completed their calls, I will post the results here for you as I’ve done previously.
Please let me know if you have any questions regarding our upcoming calls and I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day.
Hi Michelle,
Thank you for your reply and offer to make more calls on our behalf.
So far we have refrained from reaching out to other companies on your list, is this something we can now start doing, or should we wait to see what kind of results y’all get?
Cheers,
Philip
Hello Philip,
I suggest waiting until we see the results from our team’s phone efforts before reaching out on your own. That way we can avoid any over lap.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions on this and have a great rest of your day.
OK. We will wait to see how you make out.
Cheers,
Philip

Edens is interested. Following up.
Please keep the leads coming!

Hello,
Thank you for these updates. Please be sure to keep these updates in our provided reporting templates so that I can review these updates with the team.
Thank you and I look forward to seeing how your conversations progress.

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? We require quarterly reporting at a minimum to keep our agreement active.
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.
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.

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.
I would like to request you reconsider your decision. I have been tending to a family situation with a sickly parent over the past several weeks and I was unable to send the report.
I will email the sales report after sending this message, it is fairly up to date.
I have been working with leads that were vetted by you, rather than going out to anybody and everybody on the list. When you see my sales report you will see a number of red cells, these are companies that said they are not interested in collagen. When you vet these leads, do they express an interest in collagen? If so, I am not seeing it. I would like to dig deeper into this list and find those that work with wellness products. Collagen is popular and we have a very good product, but I am unable to get past the gate keeper and we have seen no requests for samples.
As difficult and frustrating as it has been, work with us to make this a success.
I look forward to your response.
Regards,
Philip
