What’s happening with Energy Drink Sales?

Continued...

The beverage bottling companies and ingredient suppliers are getting tougher; they require higher production minimums and sometimes even a retainer to get started. Production prices are a bit higher now and distributors; well they are saturated with calls from people trying to sell them energy drinks.

What can you do to compete? What can you do to get more energy drink sales? Easy, the answer is support. If you have better support you’ll have more sales.

So what kind of support do you need to get the best distributors and the best retailers to carry your product? You need two basic things, you need Bodies and you need Deals.

Your Bodies are people on the ground, opening accounts for your distributors and helping retailers sell products. Your bodies will visit accounts, open accounts, merchandise, place racks, point of sale material and sell. Your deals are what you give your retailers on the spot for taking your product. It can be a special price, it can be a refrigerator, sampling event, something. Just remember this, nobody cars if you have the best looking best tasting product. They care how much you’ll sell for them.
