Retail MBA Live Attendees Sold Products to Retailers

(Newswire.net — October 19, 2017) San Francisco, CA — Several Retail MBA Live Conference participants shared their experiences, what they learned, and their successful meetings with buyers from large retailers at the event. Numerous physical product companies in all stages and sizes have submitted video testimonials of the conference.

Retail MBA is a training and educational coaching company with various resources and events that educate entrepreneurs on how to get their products into large retailers such as Wal-Mart. The company’s most popular tool is its complete Retail MBA Training Program that consists of 10 DVDs, 5 books, binder, a carrying case, and online access to the core Retail MBA training program. In 2016, Retail MBA expanded its educational program with the Retail MBA Live events where physical product companies attended live lectures, discussions, and one-on-one meetings with large chain store buyers to pitch their products. After the success of the first Live event, Retail MBA has had several more events across the USA.

Immediately after each Retail MBA Live event, participants shared their experiences on the conference and Karen Waksman’s coaching. Waksman, the CEO and founder of Retail MBA, has hosted each Retail MBA Live event. As a former Manufacturer Representative, Waksman has a time-tested proven sales formula on how physical product companies can sell directly to retailers such as WaL-Mart, Target, Whole Foods, etc.

“She set me up, and all of us here, to have an opportunity to speak with the representative from Wal-Mart,” said attendee, Robert Smith. “She gave me some real valuable advice that I can definitely take home and work with.”

“The best part was the buyer access. But not only that, we got to spend a lot of time with Karen personally before the event to go through our sales sheets and pitch and she helped make it awesome for us so we could give the best pitch possible to the buyer,” said Mike Weir, and entrepreneur who was invited to become a Wal-Mart supplier a week after the San Francisco event, Fall 2017.

“I’ve been doing online marketing for 9 years full time. I’m very successful at it but never have I had a product get into a retail store. Now I have all the tools to get started and start actually building a big brand that doesn’t only sell online but will also actually succeed in the big box retail stores as well,” said an attendee of the second San Francisco Retail MBA Live Event.

“I just finished an intensive education with Karen Waksman at her San Francisco conference where I had the opportunity to meet with Wal-Mart and fire away questions at her and have her answer everything we could possibly thing of in an incredibly supportive environment. I also got the opportunity to see what many other people were doing and share our tools and our resources and our buyers lists and our experiences” said Candice Nelms after the Retail MBA Live event in November.

The past Retail MBA Live events have both been located in San Francisco. The most recent Retail MBA Live event was in San Diego on September 8, 2017 at the Marriott Del Mar San Diego, where entrepeneurs had the opportunity to learn more about how to sell to Walmart and become one of Walmart suppliers.
