Got another rejection today - not good! Maybe it just boils down to rotten communication skills. The question that comes to mind is mine or the distribution agent who represent us at the category review meetings? It would make me feel so much better if I could pass the buck. Unfortunately, I know as does any other honest entrepreneur that sole responsibility for any actions taken by yourself or your employees always falls back on your shoulders. You are the captain of the ship..you are in charge of okaying all decisions..you take the blame!
So what am I doing wrong? I get emails daily from consumers wondering why they can't find Orgapod products on more supermarket shelves and what else am I to say besides, "we're working on it so please bear with us." How do you as a small company competing in a niche market sector get noticed? I suppose that's the million dollar question that many who find themselves unfortunate enough to be in my situation are probably asking themselves.
I wonder if luck at all plays a roll in the scheme of things? I always told myself the harder I tried the better the outcome would be...but how do you explain getting de-listed off the shelves after only 3 months because the new man in charge (who ignores the growing sales volumes) claims he's never heard of you??
I'm not overly religious but...'God if you're listening ..HELP...change my luck..alter my Karma...realign my stars...preferably as soon as possible. Thank you.'
