We started as retailers, ourselves, in a cruise ship destination in Southeast Alaska. Our\u00a0store carried over 150+ vendors, and served thousands of customers each week. In Fall 2009 we\u00a0closed our physical retail location and decided to pursue a wholesale career with the knowledge we\u00a0had acquired. We switched to wholesale representation&#8211;a perfect fit to allow us to stay in the retail sphere that we love, while allowing us more time with our young growing family!<br \/>\n<\/br><br \/>\n<strong>OUR LINES:<\/strong> We are proud District Sales Representatives for Tense Wooden Watches. We&#8217;ve been wearing our own wood watches since 2007, when we first started selling them and discovered that they were extremely popular with customers. We\u00a0also wholesale our\u00a0original line of Real Natural Flower Jewelry, which makes custom jewelry designs from natural flowers set in Sterling Silver. This line is currently marketed to Alaska locations via Custom name-drop carding. We also recently started representing Quilling Card, which makes artisan-crafted 3D cards in the historic art form of paper twirling.<br \/>\n<\/br><br \/>\n<strong>OUR PURPOSE:<\/strong> We\u00a0pride ourselves\u00a0in going above and beyond the typical Sales Representative. As former retailers, we\u00a0know exactly what it takes to be an effective and successful rep that offers value to each client. We\u00a0understand each client&#8217;s unique challenges with ordering, displaying, and handling customer concerns. We are\u00a0not impersonal product pushers&#8212;we are experienced assistants who identify stores with good product potential, speak the retail language, and relate to retailers with valuable assistance that helps them succeed.<br \/>\n<\/br><br \/>\nAlso, with the added perspective of our\u00a0own wholesale line, we\u00a0know the unique challenges that face a wholesale company. This helps us\u00a0address and assist companies as they face\u00a0the difficulties of production, invoicing, and marketing\/display needs for their customers. Our services help wholesalers and retailers create strong, lasting sales relationships.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OUR BACKGROUND: We are family-owned business that has been in operation since 2005.
