Sales Repping in the Outdoor Industry with Aaron Dusek | On the Horizon Ep. 9

The sales process within the hunting industry may be more complex than you thought. The items on Cabela’s shelves and Academy’s floor don't just appear from the manufacturer. A lot of business and several companies are involved before they get there. Aaron is a well known player in the product rep industry and is currently a principal owner at Schooler and Associates. He represents the outside sales force that works on behalf of manufacturers to get their products into the doors of dealers and box stores. Derrick and Aaron talk about the trends in the hunting industry, how COVID-19 and the following challenges have affected inventory levels, and how rep groups help companies in the outdoor industry gain traction and grow. Aaron has been a valuable ally for Horizon Firearms and brings a lot of industry knowledge to the table. . . . . .On The Horizon episodes brought to you by:Horizon FirearmsTexas Ammunitioniota OutdoorsStiller22 Creedmoor Join us on InstagramJoin us on FacebookVideo version available on our YouTube and Rumble Channel.
