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.

Hi Michelle
We send all the interested retailers a list of our products with pictures and a product description in order for them to choose a free sample.
Why do we not get any replies from them?
Regards
Rynold
Hello Rynold,
I’m happy to hear you’ve received the sample requests and I would encourage you continue to reach out to those who have no responded to your initial email. Remember we recommend at least 3-5 attempts before considering them to be a dead lead.
I will also be posting the warm leads we discussed to your dashboard shortly. Please add these warm leads to your current outreach efforts and keep me updated using the report we discussed. You can upload a report anytime to the dashboard using the add document button.
Thank you for reaching out and I look forward to seeing how your outreach progresses.
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/
Please let me know if you have any trouble reaching them, Keep us updated on your progress.
We hope you’re doing well. Below are more retailers who’ve clicked to learn more about your product but did not fill out the sample request form. Please be sure to add them to your current outreach efforts and remember to keep me updated as 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. This is also one of your roles and responsibilities listed your contract with us and remember we require communication reporting every quarter at minimum.

Hi Michelle
Thank you for the info.
I called the first five retailers that send us their contact info.
We send product samples to four of the retailers. Some received their samples today and the other will get it tomorrow.
I will let you know if we get a positive response
Hello,
Thank you for the update. Please also be sure to reach out to the above posted warm leads as we’ll be looking for the feedback from these retailers as well.
Please also remember it can take some persistence with getting in touch with them, that is why we suggest reaching out 3-5 times via email and phone in order to not miss an opportunity.
I look forward to seeing how your outreach progresses with all of these leads and remember to keep all of your outreach efforts documented in the reporting we discussed so that our team can review. You can add your report directly to this page using the add document button.
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.
Hi Michelle
Rachel Pennington joined our sales team. She will follow up with calls to the retailers.
We had no luck so far and hopefully Rachel might get a retailer interested.
Hello,
Thank you for the update and remember to keep all of your outreach detail in a report so that you can upload it and have our team review it. Once we review those details, we can offer suggestions as well as determine what steps are needed to move forward.
Thank you again and have a great rest of your day.

Hi Joel and Michelle
I have been trying to get my products into the US market since 2016. Currently we have some great products like macadamia nuts that are way more expensive than other tree nuts, but it seems to me no retailer is interested.
We will send a report by the end of this week on the dashboard.
I have decided to wait until the end of this week and will then close the shop after all these years of effort and a lot of my personal savings invested into Farmernut.
If you know of somebody that wants to buy Farmernut, please let me know. We still have access to all the products on our website and more.
Hello,
Thank you for this update, I really appreciate it. I look forward to reviewing the reporting on the dashboard and discussing next steps.
Hello,
Thank you for the recently uploaded report. It looks like you’re off to a good start and we would suggest reaching out to the contacts who you’ve not yet connected with by phone as we’ve found email follow up to be underwhelming for sales.
You can find additional contact information for all of these leads in our provided member directory. Here is the link to your directory for your convenience: https://independentgrocerassociation.com/directory/
Please keep me updated as you continue your outreach and once we see the feedback you receive from that continued outreach, we will then move forward with more outreach.
Hello,
I hope you’re having a good week so far and wanted to reach out with an update on our current outreach efforts. We’ve seen a major decline in interest from our retailers and have decided to revisit our outreach starting after Q1. It is typical to see this decline this time of year due to the holiday season and retailer’s evaluation of upcoming budgets.
Please let me know if you have any questions and once we have a tentative delivery date for more leads, we’ll reach back to provide that information.
