Testimonials
“I would recommend Avatar Sales and Marketing as a consultant to any manufacturer who either is interested in entering the Natural Products Industry in North America or who has already entered the industry but has not had success at establishing market share.
Avatar provided an excellent and thorough consulting project for us to teach us the “ins and outs” and cost analyses from the sales and marketing end of the natural products industry. We found Avatar to be the piece that was missing in our ability to analyze our company and our products worthiness in the industry and whether or not we were ready to grow and invest more revenues in this channel. I would say that Avatar saved us a great deal of time, money and energy that otherwise would have been spent to no avail.”

“In launching our business, whatever fears, hesitations and concerns we had were made much easier through the initial consulting process with Avatar. They helped us outline what it would take to launch our product whether it was half-nation, full-nation, or direct versus distribution. When working with Avatar, you get a full time National Sales & Marketing Manager and two administrative assistants to handle all the daily duties. Avatar knows how to get you where you want to go. Kim is an excellent guide to accelerating a company through natural products channels, and I'd gladly work with her again.”

“RidgeCrest Herbals has had a business relationship with Avatar Sales and Marketing for in excess of three years. We found them to have integrity and to be dedicated, enthusiastic and energetic in selling our products. They are good business and sales people and capable marketers, especially in building and maintenance of a broker/distributor network. They are well connected in the natural products industry. We recommend Avatar Sales and Marketing to anyone for whom an outsourced sales and marketing organization would fill a need, as it did for us for a considerable period of time.”

“Avatar Sales and Marketing has proven to be indispensable in our company’s efforts to penetrate the natural products retail channel with our nutritional supplement products. The breadth and depth of their knowledge of the industry, their best-of-the-best broker partners throughout the US, and their relationships with key distributor partners sets Avatar apart as the premier sales organization of its kind.
Acting as National Sales Directors for Pure Fruit Technologies, Avatar Sales and Marketing has helped us avoid the common mistakes new product manufacturers typically make when entering the natural channel and have led us to opportunities to which we would not have otherwise enjoyed access.
Avatar’s professionalism and creativity can take great ideas and products to the next levels of success.”
