The Buyer Meeting — The Shelf Series, Book 05 cover

Book 05 · Twelve Minutes

The twelve minutes that decide your year.

Written from the other side of the desk — by someone who took those meetings as a category manager. The review calendar, the pricing architecture, the sell sheet, and the four answers that end meetings early.

  • 01 The category review calendar — and why timing beats quality
  • 02 ECRM and the show circuit: what actually happens in a 20-minute meeting
  • 03 Pricing architecture: building to a 40% everyday retail margin — and when specialty holds 50%+
  • 04 The one-page sell sheet, annotated
  • 05 What buyers actually ask — and the four answers that end meetings early
  • 06 Sampling: what to bring, who talks, who doesn't
  • 07 The follow-up sequence that separates you from the other 39 brands
  • Where this gets hard alone: getting on the calendar in the first place
