Do you think you are spending your lot of hard earned money on your necessities and at the end feel dissatisfied? The only reason is you find the same things somewhere at less price or better quality or even both. You would have got the best thing at best price if you had compared the prices and traits of the products you wanted to buy. But who has time to go places? Compare and again turn to the store where you think the deal will be the best? Who has that extra time? And so to give a shopping aid to buyers like us, the best price comparison sites are launched which allows users to search, compare and buy sitting at their home/office.

Just one mouse click and we get all products relevant to our search request listed along with the traits and price and the seller information. We can read the testimonials written about the vendors by other buyers who have already used the products. This helps to find a vendor who we feel is trustworthy. Once we choose our product after all browsing and comparison, it redirect us to the vendor. We can shop either online and if we have chosen a local store we can message/email the store and simply pay and collect our product.

Simply join the trend. Use the latest technology i.e., World Wide Web to aid you and make your shopping experience simpler. Log on to the site. Search and browse the best product list created just for you. Go through all product characteristics and prices. Compare according to your focus whether cost or some specific product quality. Choose a product and then finalize your buy. You will be redirect to the vendor and you are done with your reasonable and confident shopping. Have a never before satisfying shopping experience.

To make it clearer I will tell you one of my shopping experiences and I am sure you can relate it with your experiences. I wanted to buy a card reader. It was an urgent requirement for me at that time. I saw a discount tag at a mall and quickly bought it. A few days later a friend of mine was carrying a better quality card reader than mine and the worst thing was she bought it at much cheaper rate. I was so disappointed with my shopping decision. It would have been better if I had compared the qualities along with prices at different shops and then bought the reader. But always in such situation caused by wrong and hasty buying decisions we tend to find excuse for ourselves that, “I did not have time. So my deal was relevantly fine;” But out of the blue I learned about online price comparisons that could save a lot of my time and allow me to compare my dream products such that I can buy them at my dream rate. I used product price comparison site and it changed the whole idea of shopping. I can simply compare one product available at several different stores and that too sitting in an easy chair at home or while working and in fraction of time. My options increased, I got satisfying quality at reasonable rates. And I was so confident that I am buying the best thing at the best price. I, a customer like you guarantee that once you start shopping with price comparisons sites, you will not find a better shopping companion than this.

Got a product? Want to know how to get it into retail stores? Getting a product into a big box retailer or even a mom and pop is what a lot of inventors and entrepreneurs dream about. No wonder, there are fortunes to be had. But you don’t have to be a Fortune 500 company to get your product into stores. As a former Fortune 100/500 executive, I’ve placed thousands of products into thousands and thousands of retail stores. Here are 8 Lessons I Learned While Getting Products into Stores for Pillsbury, Johnson & Johnson, Frito-Lay/PepsiCo, & Whole Foods Market:

1. You Don’t Have To Be a Fortune 500 Company To Act Like One. Start by doing your homework. You’d be surprised how many entrepreneurs I talk to that don’t want to take the time or invest the money to do the most basic things to assure their success. Fortune 500 companies don’t launch products blindly. Understand your consumer, your product, and your customer. Does your product help your consumer solve his or her problems? Is your product unique? Visit several stores where you can “see” your product. Now, ask yourself: If I were the buyer for this retailer, why would I buy my product and put it on that shelf?

2. Create a Superstar from the Start. Your product should be unique, a bestseller that makes you money. Sounds simple, doesn’t it? But I’ve seen the big boys fall flat on their face forgetting this simple concept. Here’s what you need to do: Make sure the consumer not only needs but wants your product. Price your product competitively so there’s good profit margin for you and your retailer. (Biggest losers are only fun on television shows, right?) Create packaging that excites your consumer. Then create promotions that will motivate the retailer and the consumer to buy your product.

3. Build Your Team Wisely. Stop pretending that you can do it all by yourself because you can’t. You need shortcuts and someone to show you the way. Invest in your business. A consumer product expert, consultant, or information marketer may have a home-study course or group consulting. From product experts to manufacturing reps, brokers to distributors, there are knowledgeable people out there to help you. Find the ones with solid know-how and experience. They’ll save you years of time and tens of thousands of dollars.

4. Challenge Yourself to Grow Smart. Get your product in your first store, then build from there. When you get your product in stores, you build a track record. Retail stores don’t want sprinters. Show them that you’re a marathon runner. Big box retailers love vendors with endurance. So build a track record and prove that you can run with them for miles and miles.

5. Commit to Continuous Improvement. Fortune 500 companies are constantly searching for better ways to do things, how to make their products and teams stronger. Evaluate what is and isn’t working with your product and your business. You can’t have one part of your marketing mix right, like the best product, but not have the right promotions.

6. Do What Your Retailers Ask You to Do. Each retail store has their own policies, procedures, and processes for accepting new products. Find information about your targeted retail customer on their website, call or email, or make personal contact. You’re going to have to find out who makes the decisions about products like yours, how, and how often. Some companies, like Walmart, have very specific processes. Yet, they allow regional distribution, too. Same with Whole Foods. And some have open vendor days.

7. Be Prepared for the Presentation of Your (and Your Product’s) Life. Do your homework before you walk into that meeting with that big box retail store buyer. Know their language. Familiarize yourself with industry terms, such as categories, conditions of sale, discounts, EDI, and allowances. You will need a sample of your product, barcode, brochure, price lists, marketing plans, and specifics about your distribution and competition. You must have the precise information your retailers need and want to show that you can be a player.

8. Maintain That Small Company Mentality Even When You Become a Big One. One of the things that will give you a competitive edge is that you won’t have all the bureaucracy of a Fortune 500. Red tape and sludgy big company processes can kill new product innovation. Believe me, I know. Use your nimbleness as your competitive advantage. You can use a variety of savvy online and offline marketing techniques too, like websites, blogs, social marketing, mobile marketing, coupons, ads, and public relations, ways to touch consumers that use your entrepreneur’s cutting-edge to your advantage.

Here’s the good news. You can do this if you keep moving forward. Take action. With a little smarts, good sense, and effort, you can get your product in stores and onto shelves. And you don’t have to be a Fortune 500 company. Everyday people just like you get their products into retail stores. All big businesses, even the Fortune 500 companies I’ve worked for, started with just one idea and usually one person.

Product launching for information products is part science, part luck, and part charisma. If you want to be successful in the e-book business, you are going to need to develop a system for launching your work. Otherwise, without a launch, your product will fall flat on its face. Keep reading for some great tips on launching your information product.

The key with creating a positively successful product launch is to start early. You need to give your marketing message enough time to reach a large amount of customers. You also need to have the proper vehicles in place so that your fans will have incentive to spread the word as well.

That is the key to a successful launch. You need to have a certain amount of word of mouth advertising going on at the same time. This is what really drives people to buy. To have a successful product launch, you cannot do it alone. You must have a group of people that are all promoting your e-book at the same time.

You need to develop a rewards program with affiliate sales, discounts, or some other type of incentive for your biggest fans to become sounding boards for your new information product.
You need to put out the same message every time you create a marketing piece. Your customer has to get a similar marketing message on a frequent basis before they will make a buying decision. Some people will buy on the first notice. Some people need 30-40 interactions with your material before they finally buy.
Time – you have to have enough time for the launch. You cannot create a successful product launch in 2 days. In most cases, you should leave at lest 3-4 weeks of contact before launch. If the product is more involved or more expensive, you may need to launch over many months.
Don’t allow the prospects to get bored during the launch- Hold contests about spreading the word. Slowly squeak out little tidbits of information out to the public. You have to hold their interest over that entire time.
Once your launch period is over, your prospects will be so ready to make a purchase that they will barely read any of your sales material. Use this time to grab testimonials and keep that energy going so that you can keep a relatively high level of sales going even AFTER the launch is complete. I highly discourage deep discounts during a launch, or you will see a huge drop in purchases from that day forward. Give other types of bonuses for people that purchase on launch day instead.
