Dear Frances
I am a new business and just showed my first samples at the ENK Show in NYC. Thanks so
much, FBI, for existing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wish I were in LA to go to so many great offerings, but I'm in the Philly area.
I am curious to know if you know any sales representatives interested in having more lines
to show.
My clothing is high quality infant (0-24 month) apparel.
I would suggest that you inquire at stores you wish to sell to and find out which trade shows they attend and what reps they deal with. Like all parts of this industry it is important to know who you are dealing with and if they are the right fit for you and will represent your company's needs.
There are many horror stories out there of manufacturers choosing the wrong reps and visa versa. It is up to you to find your own representative. You can buy books with lists of reps and the types of lines they rep but it is all about personality types and getting references, plus you will need a good agreement in place with them.
You should fly to LA and walk the Marts to find the right showroom for your line. I am sorry but there is no easy way around this.
