Order volume is higher, quantities sold are larger and the customer lifetime value is greater when you sell wholesale.
Which means… you’re putting more money in your pocket!
Selling wholesale requires different strategies than selling direct to consumer, offering custom products or even licensing your work. Wholesale requires you to consider buying seasons, product release cycles, fulfillment support as well as unique sales & marketing strategies. I know it sounds overwhelming.
I’ve been where you are now. I started my product brand in 2008 (at the start of a recession) and blindly jumped into selling wholesale within 6 months, exhibiting at my first international trade show in 2009 as my launching point.
In 2011, I saw that my creative colleagues needed business support & could benefit from the knowledge I had amassed from 10+ years in the corporate world plus two MBAs in marketing & finance, not to mention my 8 years of scaling my own product brand… so that’s when Proof to Product was born.
With my guidance, my clients have…
» Surpassed $2M in annual revenue
» 10x wholesale revenue in a single month
» Hit yearly sales goals by October, then took a month OFF!
I value simplicity in business. And, I have a knack for breaking down complicated strategies into simple steps so that you have stronger sales, higher profit & more support.
Whether you’re brand new to business or you’ve been at it a while, our community will offer you support and strategies to help you reach your specific wholesale goals faster.
Welcome, I’m so happy to have you here.
