What We Do
We introduce manufacturers in the fashion industry to the right apparel sales reps in all the major markets of the USA.
WORK IN EACH MARKET
We work in a very unique way. We travel to every market and meet with the reps periodically. We show your line to the reps by emailing them your line sheets or showing them your website and then we conduct in-depth interviews with each rep. We only recommend reps to you who are seriously interested in representing you. We know all of the best reps in every territory.
CLIENT PROFILE
We prepare a complete “client profile” so that we have all the information necessary to answer all the reps questions and represent you properly. Your agreement with the rep is between you and the independent apparel sales reps. We will, however, advise you about anything you need to know when dealing with a fashion sales rep organization. With about 25 years experience in the fashion industry, we can answer all your questions and consult with you free of charge.
GUARANTEE
We have a very liberal guarantee. If for any reason you are not pleased with a rep, we will conduct additional searches to replace the rep as often as necessary for a period of a year at no additional cost. You keep the rep forever.
FEES
We have a very reasonable one-time fee which usually translates to about 1% of sales the first season or the first year depending on the size of your company. Our fee is paid when you hire us. There are absolutely no other charges. We start our work immediately, set up appointments, travel, show your line to the reps etc. Our fee becomes a very small percentage of sales and is usually covered by the first couple of orders.
COMMISSIONS
Salesmen work on a commission basis. Their commissions are due by the end of the next month following shipping. Sometimes there may be a small showroom fee. Basically, you are paid by the store before you pay commissions.
CREDIT AND TERMS
You can check your own credit or use a factor. Good clothing sales reps sell to good accounts, which is one reason why you must have the best fashion sales, agent. Most accounts these days are paying in advance by credit card or some may ask for terms of net 30.
QUESTION AND REFERENCES
If you are interested in learning more about our services and our fees, please let us know and we will be happy to answer all your questions and discuss with you in detail what we have done for our various clients. If you ultimately wish to hire us, we will, of course, send you a complete proposal.
