Today I am talking to Therese Ørtenblad from Small Business Collaborative. Therese is a wholesale expert having a decade of experience working for large and small wholesale businesses selling products into brands as big as John Lewis or small as your local gift shop. She now mentors small product businesses helping them to make the most of their wholesale opportunities. In this episode we start basic, talking about how wholesale fundamentally works and go onto share selling and confidence tips, we talk pricing and we look at what opportunities might be right for you.
