This is great! It was hard to really see the value at first, but once I watched one of Daniel's video and saw how he used it I was able to see the advantages.

I run an enterprise SaaS and I will say that the process of selling software that has never existed is extremely challenging. We essentially are a software tool that manages the pr…

They make shows to match different demographics and user groups. Not every show is supposed to be enjoyed by every person. It is about making a broad range of shows to meet the wan…

I was an early user of "unnamed" popular Kickstarter door lock and I took my dog out at 9pm and came back to find that the batteries were dead. I called the customer support and th…

That is the case - they offer a code you can punch it as well as a key card you can keep in your wallet (according to their website).

I am trying to find a site or service that will let you query UPC codes in the food and beverage space and pull out product info. Does anyone have any leads or suggestions on how t…

Will do - thanks.

We are targeting ourselves to anyone that doesn't have their own system. Small and medium distributors lend themselves well to this because they usually have small sales forces and…

Thanks for the thoughts and we will check them out. We aren't looking to change the way alcohol is distributed, just offer a tool to take orders. There are a bunch of distributors …

There are 5600 distributors in the country. Our software could also work though for self distributed beers, liquor and wine, as they have to take orders also.

The sales reps could see it as a threat depending on how it works with them. We always say that there is a place for good sales reps, we just don't want them to be glorified order …

Great thoughts and exactly the problem we are trying to solve. We actually have our system setup to work with Bevinco, which comes in and takes your inventory in the middle of the …

1) Accounts (bars, restaurants, wedding halls, grocery stores, etc.) are either served by a sales rep or the orders have to be phoned in if you don't have a sales rep. If you have …

It is a split, the bars, restaurants and stores get to speed up ordering immensely and also don't have the interruptions of sales reps in and out. The distributors get to streamlin…

So in order to get distributors onboard, we have been signing up bar and restaurant groups to use our service to send sales reps orders. Our goal is to go back to distributors and …

There is a pretty big range - but it ends up being a nice mix of large, medium and small. Large distributors will typically be your macro beer and liquor brands. Mom and pop distri…
