It is my belief that if anyone is to suceed in any type of business then the business needs to be marketed to it's target consumers in an effective manner.

Why You Never Have To Pay Retail Prices For Anything - Ever Again
I step into my local mall, and into a leading top brand clothes store. I
see a jumper I like and while feeling the soft material casually lift up the
price tag - and I almost feint with disbelief. How much??? That's more
than I make in 2 days! I quickly stop caressing the fabric and head toward
Big Als Unbranded Clothes Discount Centre for a sweater within my budget

What is a wholesaler? In a nutshell, it is a company that buys (usually directly) from a manufacturer in large quantities at a discount, then pieces out the product into smaller quantities that are then sold for a higher price. The usual chain of product goes: Manufacturer > Wholesaler > Retailer > Customer.
