Value Beats Volume in Retail
Retail Readiness Expert Shares Ten Breakthrough Strategies for Increasing Your Value
Proposition

BENTONVILLE, AR - Retail Readiness Coach, a division of Bentonville-based
Newmarketbuilders, announced the latest teleseminar in their, "Are You Really Ready
for Retailers?" educational series. This series is aimed at helping aspiring and
new product entrepreneurs place their products in today\'s major retailers. In this
new teleseminar, Retail Readiness Coach, Carol Spieckerman, will discuss the
emerging trend among today\'s retailers to make buying decisions based on high value,
not just on sales generation. Ms. Spieckerman, president of Newmarketbuilders, said
in a recent presentation, "If you are remotely serious about doing business with
major retailers, especially major mass retailers like Wal-Mart and Target, then you
had better get to work on improving your VALUE proposition!"

Having pioneered and managed multi-million-dollar programs for Wal-Mart and Target
prior to starting the firm and with major mass vendors comprising over 80% of
Newmarketbuilders\' client base, Ms. Spieckerman is well-known for her depth of
knowledge regarding retailer trends and best vendor practices. Based on this
experience, Ms. Spieckerman will share ten breakthrough strategies for entrepreneurs
and retail suppliers to increase their value proposition.

Seminar participants will learn:
· What \"value\" means to retailers these days . . . it\'s more than low prices!
· Why RAISING your prices is easier in this value- based environment . . .
· Specific new retailer criteria for picking and choosing products and vendors . . .
ones that many established vendors are ignoring TO THEIR PERIL!
· How small to medium-sized companies can leverage value to gain an edge over
mega-vendors
· Specific ideas and catch phrases that you must incorporate into your marketing NOW!
· Uncovering and articulating the value in your current products (you may not need
to change a thing)!
· How focusing on value makes line extension, licensing and pricing decisions a snap
. . .

"Bottom line, this is the most important principal for retail vendors to grasp as
they present new items to their retail customers and prospects . . . AND, current
vendors must realize that every item in their arsenal, even those that already have
shelf space, will be subject to review under these new standards. It is imperative
that vendors big and small get comfortable with presenting and defending their value
proposition," says Ms. Spieckerman.

The seminar, conducted via teleconference, will be held on Thursday, July 20th, at 2
p.m. eastern daylight time (7 p.m. London, 1 p.m. central, 11 a.m. pacific). To
