As the eCommerce industry grows, so does the range of different sales channels you can explore.

But our guest on this week’s podcast episode believes you shouldn’t discount more traditional channels when looking to grow your business.

Maureen Mwangi is a ‘big box’ retail expert and helps her clients get stocked on some of the biggest retail chains in the US.

In this episode, I quizzed her about when a brand is ready for retail, how to get it ready, and how to create agreements with retail buyers that are a win/win.

Enjoy!
