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 that 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.
Thanks!. We are sending emails to all of the contacts today.
Hello,
Thank you for the update. I look forward to seeing how the outreach progresses. Remember to keep track of your outreach using a tracking spreadsheet like the one we provided. You can then upload it directly to the dashboard using the “add document” button near the top of the page.
Thank you again for the update and have a great rest of your week.
Hi – Do you happen to have a guildline on the terms and conditions between retailers and wholesalers? For example, return and exchange policy, shipping.
For the directory: is there a way for us to export it to excel so we can filter out the boutique that is more relevant to us?
Thanks,
Scarlett
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out and I hope you’re doing well. I do not have a guideline for the terms and conditions. I suggest you do some research on what other suppliers have offered in terms of shipping and return/exchanges.
At this time there is no option to export the directory. You are able to search by location and keywords that should help you narrow down the desired contacts.
Thank you for reaching out and have a great rest of your week.
We have not received any more new leads since last week launch. Do you happen to receive any other leads that are interested in our products?
Hello,
At this time we’d like to focus on the initial list of leads. Once we see the feedback from these leads, we’ll discuss moving forward with a new list of leads. Please be sure to keep me updated on how the outreach is going. You can upload the report directly to the dashboard using the “Add document” button located near the top of the page.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
Hello,
I’ve reviewed the report and it looks like you’re doing great. Please be sure you’re using the directory to reach out to these leads by phone as well. We’ve found email follow up to be underwhelming for sales.
Thank you again for the report and I hope you have a great rest of your day.
Hi – Are you going to resend the e-blast? We are not getting any new leads for the past week and wondering if you will send another eblast to the community.
Thanks,
Scarlett
Hello,
I hope you’re doing well today. Could you please send me and updated report of your outreach? I’d like to get an idea of how the conversations are going before we discuss moving forward with a second introduction. Once I receive the report, I’ll review it with the team and create a plan for moving forward.
Thank you for reaching out and I look forward to hearing from you.
Hello,
Thank you for the updated report. I see there are still some contacts whom have not responded to the emails. As I’ve mentioned before, we’ve found email follow up to be underwhelming for sales. Please be sure to reach out to them by phone as well. You can find their contact information in the directory we’ve provided.
I see there are a few who are marked “No longer interested”. Could you please include the feedback (if any) you’ve received that deemed them to be not interested? That feedback will be helpful for us to ensure we’re on the right path and in the right market for your product.
Thank you.
We will update the comment section again. We have not received any response from our emails. We will try calling them this week.
The contact that we marked “not interested”, they just no longer want to receive our emails.
Hello,
Thank you for the quick response. Keep me updated as you start reaching out by phone and I look forward to the feedback you receive.
Thank you again and have a great rest of your day.
Hi – we just attached our most recent report. We may have potential interest from a bridal shop in Cali. They said that they will place an order with us. Do you happen to have any guideline or example for the term and agreements of wholesales? Also payment method?.
Thanks,
Scarlett
Do you know when will our press release be sent out?
Hello,
I hope you’re doing well today. Thank you for the updated report. I’ve looked it over and it looks like you’re doing great. Please remember to reach out to these leads by phone as well. You can find their contact information using the directory we’ve provided. I look forward to seeing your first sale and in regards to a template agreement, I suggest doing some research online for a good idea of what it should look like. I’d also advise you be lean on the side of safety with transactions.
In regards to the press release, I will reach out to Paula for the status and she will be in touch by the end of this week. Please be sure to check your spam folder should she have already sent the results.
Hi – I would like to check in to see whether the press release is being sent out.
Hi – I would like to check in to see when our press release will be sent out? It has been quite sometime and there is no update.
Hello,
I apologize for the delay in response. I have asked Paula to reach out to you regarding the status and she will be in touch by the end of the week.
Hi – I have attached our report for this month. We have only gotten 1 sale so far and have not received much responses from the retailers.
I also noticed there is an end date of Oct 1, 2021 on top of the portal. What does it mean?
Is there any other channel that we can reach on top of this boutique list?
Thanks,
Scarlett
Hello,
I hope you’re doing well today. Congratulations on your first sale! I have reviewed the report and see you’ve been able to email all of these leads but we do suggest you reach out by phone as well. Email follow up has been proven to be underwhelming for sales. Remember you can access the association directory to find phone numbers for the leads posted above. Please continue to reach out to this initial list of leads by phone and once we see that outreach completed and review the feedback from it, we’ll move forward with more leads.
Thank you again and have a great rest of your week.
Hi – I also noticed there is an end date of Oct 1, 2021 on top of the portal. What does it mean?
Hello,
That end date on the dashboard is for our onboarding and set up purposes. The date shown does not apply to our agreement.
Please let me know if you have any other questions and have a great weekend.
Hi – We still have not received any update on our Press Release from Paula. Will it be sent out soon?
Also, will there be a second e-blast email sent out for our product?
Hello,
I am sorry for the delay in response. Please make sure you are checking your spam folder for correspondence from Paula as we’ve had that be an issue before. I will check in with her but at this time, we may still be waiting on the press release report to be sent back to us from the marketing firm.
Thank you for your patience on this. I will look into it and get back to you.
We will conduct further outreach once we see the feedback from this initial list of leads. We’re hoping to get as much feedback from the retailers so that we know who to target on our next outreach as well as to ensure we are on the right path.
Please let me know if you have any further questions and have a great rest of your day.
Hello – We still have not received any email from Paula. Can we please get an update on when our press release will be sent out?
Thanks,
Scarlett
Hi – I just want to follow up again, I have not received any communication from Paula for our press release.
Also, we spent the last month calling most of the fashion boutique but they showed no interest at the moment. What should we do?
Hello,
Thank you for sending me the updated report. I’ve reviewed it and see you’ve been able to reach out to everyone and you are doing the right thing.
In regards to those who have stated “Not interested”, did the retailer mention why they were not interested in moving forward? I see there was one retailer who has a note stating “no longer interested”. Please let me know if there was any further feedback from them as this will be helpful when we start to conduct further outreach.
As to the press release, Paula has been in touch with the marketing firm and they’ve let us know they will not be able to publish the content due to their company’s guidelines. We have had this happen in the past with specific products that they deem to be “sensitive”. Paula will be submitting it again in hopes of being able to push it through and we will let you know the status of this as soon as we have an update to share.
Thanks for the reply.
So for the one retailer says no longer interest – they was original interested in our products but as of now due to the demand and capacity, they no longer want to place orders for any new product as of now.
For the rest of the retailers, some of they gave straight answer as No, some of them asked for our email and information and after that they just said no interest.
Thanks
Hello,
Thank you for the clarification. I have asked our outreach team to start conducting phone outreach to more retailers for your product and will you send you all interest generated from our conversations.
I will be posting these leads here and you should expect them to be delivered in the next 10-15 days. Please be sure you’re checking the dashboard regularly to ensure nothing is missed.
Keep me updated if you receive more feedback from the initial list of leads and have a great rest of your day.
Hello,
We hope you are having a good week. We’ve been able to reach out with a few retailers who’ve expressed early interest in learning more about your product. Please feel free to reach out to them by sending an email to introduce yourself and answer any questions they may have.

Hello,
Thank you for the report. I have reviewed it and see you’ve posted that all of the 10/8/21 leads have been spoken to and resulted in not interested. Could you please also add exactly who you spoke with during these calls? We’d like to follow up with them to determine where the disconnect may be. Please also include if they offered any other information on why they were not interested.
Thank you and I look forward to your reply.
So out of 5 leads from 10/8, only Lisa from gosavvybride said she was not interested. The other leads, we are still trying to reach them as some of them were out. We will let you know next week once we got a hold of them.
Hello,
Thank you for the clarification and I look forward to seeing how the outreach progresses.
Hi – I am unable to upload a sales report. Please let me know if you see the same issue from your side.
Also, I want to give you a quick update regarding the 5 contacts that you reached out before. We were able to send a sample to Allure Bridal. Minerva Bridal is still reviewing our brochure and sell sheet. We cannot reach Beautiful Brides for the last 2 weeks. Their number did not work. Are you able to try from your end?
Hello,
Please send me the updated report to my email: Michelle.neal@mrcheckoutdistributors.com
I’ll review the report and add it to the dashboard. I’ll also have our team look into the phone number for Beautiful Brides and see if they can source a new one for you should that be needed.
Thank you and have a great rest of your day.
Hello,
Thank you for the updated report. I see you’ve been doing the right thing and have made a few more connections with more of the association’s retailers. I see a few mentioned they were interested and you’ve sent them more information. I look forward to seeing the results of that follow up as well.
Please keep me updated as you have been and have a great rest of your day.
Hi – we just updated our sales report. We have reached out a handful of contacts but there not many leads that are interested in.
Is there another channel that we can explore? we felt like we have been trying for several months but there are not much interests from the boutique list.
Hello Scarlett,
Thank you for reaching out. I will be meeting with our team this week to determine what other channel options we may have for your products and what we can do to move forward. I do see that there are a few who had requested samples or asked for additional information. I believe there could be a bit more follow up to ensure no opportunity is missed. I’ve added the contacts below for your convenience:

chicago@bellabridesmaids.com
Zari Fashion Tailor

Please keep us updated on how your outreach is going. We try to make this as easy as possible with templates you can find here: https://mrcheckout.net/sales-report-templates/. You can upload this reporting directly to the dashboard for review.
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.
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.
