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,
I have submitted the sales sheet.
Hello,
Thank you for the update. Once the page is created and approved by your team, we will then move forward with scheduling our introductions.
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. 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.
Hi there,
We are working through the follow up in the coming week. Apologies we have been travelling and I did not receive notification via email that there was a message in the dashboard but this is my focus now and I will know to keep it open in the future not to miss anything.
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out with this update. Our dashboard does not have a notification feature so please be sure you’re checking this page regularly for updates and correspondence from our team.
I look forward to seeing the feedback you receive and 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. We try to make this as easy as possible with templates you can find here: https://mrcheckout.net/sales-report-templates/
Hi there,
I wanted to inform you that the emails for the following people are incorrect:
ggordon@villagepharmacy.com
counsellor@villagepharmacy.com
vijay@med-share.com
I have called to obtain the correct emails. Understood about checking dashboard daily and reporting. Hoping to have sales to report in the coming week. Are there additional stores interested? I would have expected more than 10 total. Assume your outreach is still happening?
Med Share- Vijayabhaskar Pallerla- vijay@med-share.com -(513) 412-5441, email and phone number are invalid
Central Pharmacy Boston, Inc.- Counsellor Hoffmann -counsellor@villagepharmacy.com– (617) 254-5900 – this contact does not exist
I believe part of your service is providing the correct contacts in your network and I have a 30% error rate so far which is not a good start.
Additionally, Village Pharmcy does not seem to be called Village Pharmacy and there is no contact with the name provided. I am very confused if all of these stores expressed interest why I was not given the correct contacts.
There were additional bounces in my junk email –
j.holt@hi-schoolpharmacy.com and soliva@hi-schoolpharmacy.com also bounced. So 50% of the contacts provided are wrong. Please provide the correct contacts. Thank you.
Hello Lindsay,
Thank you for providing these updates. I have sent the bounced emails and no longer valid emails to our team to update and investigate. I am unsure why you’ve experienced the bounces as our emails have been successfully sent and opened. The warm leads we’ve delivered here are those who’ve clicked that they would like a sample however did not fill out our form.
I’ve been able to retrieve additional leads from our blast and added them below. Please add them to your current outreach and please be sure to add all of the details from your follow up in our provided templates for our team to review.

Thank you again for reaching out with these updates and I look forward to seeing the feedback you receive as your conversations progress.
Thanks I have added all to my outreach. Will advise progress and look forward to correct contacts for the previous batch of issues. To ensure I properly understand, is all you are facilitating is 1 email and providing contacts of those who have clicked a button or are there actual conversations happening on our behalf? Please explain the proccess as I believe I have the wrong assumption about the actual services you are providing. Thanks.
Can you please also share a copy of the email that was sent to them and provide details on if it was branded Mr. Checkout or how it was positioned so I can properly reference the email in my outreach? Thanks in advance.
Hello,
Thank you for reaching out. I will send you the sample of our delivered blast via email. Please check your spam folder if you do not see it within the hour.
I would suggest referencing the independent pharmacy retail association when following up as Mr. Checkout is the parent company and the retailers will be more familiar with the association vs Mr. Checkout. I’ve also included the note that was delivered with the initial group of leads below for reference.
“Please note that the contacts were contacted through the retail association and are not familiar with our company Mr. Checkout.”
Please let me know if you have any further questions and I look forward to your continued updates.
Several additional bounced emails on the new round of outreach –
rclabugh@bchhc.org
jfacola@villagepharmacy.com
danpeterson@youngsdrugstore.com
carla.gober@regionalcancercare.org
Also please answer my previous question regarding outreach on your end so I can fully understand the proccess and expectations.
I have uploaded our outreach status report. It denoted all of the bounced emails. At this point I would like to speak with you and will use the link to schedule a call. I find it extremely unlikely that several emails that do not exist clicked a button to express interest. I have tested sending from multiple servers/emails to ensure the issue was not on my end and have called multiple accounts to which I have received the same feedback that the person does not exist or work there. This warrants a conversation and explanation. Thanks in advance.
Hello Lindsay,
Thank you for reaching out with these concerns and I’d be happy to discuss them with you. I’ve reviewed the details of your report and have again checked each retailer that is listed as bounced on your end. All of them have successfully received our blast, opened the email and clicked to receive a sample. When they choose to click to receive a sample, it takes them to your sell sheet, which I can confirm has occurred. It should be noted that we can not control who has access to these emails and as these retailers do change the buyers frequently, the contacts could now be different but the emails could still be in use. This retail association has a breathing list of over 9,000 contacts and we do our best to maintain and update the information frequently. We do ask that you inform of us of any outdated information that our team has not yet been made aware of.
After a deeper review of our sell sheet traffic, I see we’ve also had 3 retailers who’ve filled out the sample requests. I do not see these retailers within the provided report and I’ve added them for you below for your convenience. I also see you were able to reach out by phone to one of these contacts to update the contact and I would also suggest reaching out by phone to the remaining to move the conversation further.
If you would like to get on a call to discuss these matters further, you can schedule a follow up call with me using this link: https://mrcheckout.net/follow-up-call-with-account-manager/.
As mentioned above, below are the retailers who’ve requested samples:
Hurst Discount Drug – 15023489261 -Kim Wheatley- hurstrx@bardstown.com
Barnett Apothecary – 6624239994- Steve Barnett- bapothec@bellsouth.net
Fred’s Pharmacy- 3348975141 – Samantha Caton -scaton@gtcom.net
Hi Michelle,
I booked a call for next week. I have started calling follow ups and came across one pharmacy that is permanently closed – Chinatown Medical Pharmacy. As I make my way through follow up it is clear that the contacts provided and even some stores are not valid. When I paid for this service I was it was not made clear that I would be needing to track down correct emails, store names, contacts and numbers as this is very time consuming. I paid for your network which I believed would include proper contacts but instead I have a total of 22 leads of which half of the contacts are invalid. We can further discuss on Monday.
Hello Lindsay,
Thank you for this information. I will ask our team to look into the Chinatown Medical Pharmacy status as we have not yet been informed of their closing.
I see the call scheduled and look forward to speaking with you.
What do you recommend offering for minimum quantity for PPD freight? Hi-School asked.
What is your minimum order quantity typically?
Our min is 12 bottles per sku but I would not offer free ship with that.
Hello,
I just checked our files for the MOQ pricing but do not have that information. Could you please send me the dollar amount of the MOQ order?
Thank you.
Since we are 99% direct to consumer we do not currently have MOQ pricing. I will email you our wholesale catalogue so you have all the wholesale pricing. Open to what you feel is best for MOQ.
Hello,
Yes, please send me the wholesale pricing and I will review the details with the team.
Hello Lindsay,
As discussed, below are the three contacts who have filled out our sample request form.
Hurst Discount Drug – Kim Wheatley- hurstrx@bardstown.com – 15023489261
Barnett Apothecary- Steve Barnett -bapothec@bellsouth.net– 6624239994
Fred’s Pharmacy- Samantha Caton- scaton@gtcom.net -3348975141
Hello Lindsay,
I have reviewed the wholesale pricing with the team and although the MOQ looks good, we believe it would be beneficial to be flexible and allow them to purchase a smaller amount than your MOQ if they are requesting to. Remember, they are taking a chance on taking on a new product and will need to see the sell through before ordering large amounts. Additionally, we always suggest allowing incentives such as free shipping or lower costs for the initial orders as the freight can be added back to the re-order.
Please let me know if you have any additional questions and keep me updated on how your conversations progress with these contacts.
That makes sense. I am fine offering free shipping on 1st orders. What do you recommend we offer for PPD frieght on future orders?
Hello,
For future MOQs with PPD freight, I would suggest offering quantities and amounts that make sense for your business. I would suggest conducting further market research to get a better idea of what numbers would make sense for your company.
Thank you and I hope you 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 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.
Thank you and have a great day.
Thank you! I am working through this list of outreach this week and have been doing a lot of follow up on the initial lists including some additional sample shipments. Will share sales report update by Friday.
Updates sales outreach report submitted.
Hello Lindsay,
Thank you for this update and confirmation. I look forward to seeing how all of your follow up calls have progressed.
Hello Lindsay,
Thank you for the updates and the report. I see you’re off to a good start and have a call scheduled for today. I suggest reaching out to the remaining contacts by phone as well to ensure no opportunities will be missed. We have found email follow up to be underwhelming as your emails could be ending up in their spam folders.
Please keep me updated as you have and have a wonderful rest of your day.
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.
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.
