Contact Dealers and Re-Sellers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Dealer is also known as a Retailer or a Re-Seller (Egghead
Software, ComputerLand, Software City, etc). This is where the
public will see your software on the shelves. Dealers will also
advertise your software in their catalogs, mailings, and print ads.
Many software producers make the mistake of stopping all marketing
once they have found a distributor. Remember, that your product is
not the only product that the distributor is carrying.
The distributor will let the dealers know that they have your
product available (this is their idea of marketing), but you must
let the dealers know how superb that your software is, and why it
will sell. For this reason, the registered version of ~The
Software Marketer~ contains a database of over 1400 stores and
retailers. Many times a retailer does not know that your software
exist, now they will, and now they will contact your distributor.
~The Software Marketer~ has included a sample letter, DEALER, that
can be used as an example. This letter shows how a Retailer or
Dealer may be contacted.
