It's a sales organization, a free agent who
generally handles product lines for numerous companies of a certain
industry, segment and/or region. Manufacturer's Reps can
increase your company's sales while giving you the freedom to focus
on other areas of your business. Manufacturer's reps can be your
company's first step into a bigger market. Sometimes, business
owners take the position that no one can sell their product better
than they can. Don't limit yourself with this type of thinking.
Your enthusiasm and knowledge can be contagious and working with
the right team can make your business that much more
successful.
