Instructions
Step 1
Decide on the positioning of your sales company. Choose one of the specializations based on the needs of your target audience, previous market research, and your budget. It is possible that in your area or city there is a lack of high-quality plumbing at affordable prices, but at the same time there are many companies offering expensive brands. Build your business around such findings.
Step 2
Find plumbing suppliers. Use the Internet, exhibitions, thematic catalogs. Discuss all logistic issues with suppliers in advance. It is extremely difficult to have the entire assortment in stock, therefore many firms provide several exhibition samples, a minimum batch and a complete product catalog. It is from this that your clients will choose. Make sure delivery is fast and always in stock.
Step 3
Find a space for your store. Consider the fact that the product on sale belongs to the overall category, so make sure you have enough space for a comfortable view of the product. Warehouse space depends on your inventory. Location can take a back seat if you promote your store properly. Good choice, quality service, reasonable prices, exclusive positions: all this can make a potential client come to buy even on the outskirts of the city.
Step 4
Use the principles of merchandising on the sales floor. Create mini-interiors with plumbing: this will significantly increase your sales. It is also advisable to use related products on exhibition samples, for example, soap, bottles, towels, mirrors. The finished "picture" is able to force the buyer to purchase several positions at once.
