What has always fascinated me about distribution is this? How do you go about getting the attention of a chain in order to get your product in there? Does cold calling work?

No...not at all. It is an eye opener. It really would take being able to take a hit on losses in order to get your product to market. This is something most people, like myself, never knew. I had always thought there was some way to pitch the product to the company and get some mutual profit deal out of it. This sounds like a hamstringing from the beginning.
Now I know that you said your cookies were in Whole Foods, is it the same process for them as well? The company has an image of not rolling like the others. Or did your product have to meet certain ingredient standards?
I find this extremely fascinating. What you describe is a basic choking of the competition due to monetary restraints creating an unfair competition. Do you think a chain of stores that did things to promote the small producers would do well? Is this kind of what Whole Foods is about?
Thanks for answering...it is not often you can bend the ear of someone who has been in the trenches like this.

Listen...We the American People are behind your push for your freedom and your people having the ability to shape your country's destiny - By the People, for the People. What our government does is beyond our immediate control and should not reflect the American attitude in general.
Please pass this on to your countrymen.
Also, I would like to be able to help in some way? Are you in need of anything, and how would we get it to you?

I don't believe this...we need a pic with you and today's newspaper. Perhaps you can write on your hand "'sup reddit!?"
I hope you get elected.
