Grow Your Business with Wholesale Fulfillment

You can sell more stuff to your existing clients or you can find new profitable ones.

The way I see it, there are two ways to grow your business. You can sell more stuff to your existing clients or you can find new profitable ones. A great source for new clients is wholesale fulfillment (selling to folks that are then reselling products to their customers). I recommend you call on builders, decorators, architects, photographers, artists, galleries, framing shops, museums, and tourist attractions. I have often seen metal art for sale in restaurants. These customers usually provide the photos or art need to produce the metal art. Show them what you can do and make connections! They become your sales force, and you become a partner to them.

Providing sublimation products as part of a fundraising project is a big winner. You make the entire organization your sales force. And my favorite wholesale idea for sublimation, in general, is to sell through pet groomers. Every pet owner would love to have his or her pet on a beautiful piece of metal art.
