00:00:09hi I’m Evan Carmichael and welcome to
00:00:12another edition of ask Evan in today’s
00:00:14video I’m going to answer question from
00:00:15one of my readers dawn who was in the
00:00:17early stages of setting up a new
00:00:19business he says he’s not on Facebook or
00:00:20Twitter but he wanted to get my advice
00:00:22he’s in a medical sales rep company that
00:00:26he wants to create and he wanted my
00:00:28advice on how to find new products to be
00:00:30able to sell and hopefully be successful
00:00:32with this new company so don I don’t
00:00:34know much about the medical sales
00:00:35business but the best option for you is
00:00:38to go and start talking to customers
00:00:40most people will work the other way
00:00:41around they’ll go start talking to
00:00:43suppliers and find great deals on new
00:00:46products that they can sell only to find
00:00:48out that customers don’t want what
00:00:50they’re selling so your best bet is to
00:00:51go find a customer start asking them
00:00:54where they have a need so figure out
00:00:56what they’re trying to buy right now
00:00:58that they’re having a hard time buying
00:00:59or if they have any problem
00:01:01relationships with current suppliers all
00:01:03right if somebody has a really good
00:01:04relationship with the supplier and
00:01:06they’ve been working with them for years
00:01:07and really happy it’s gonna be really
00:01:08hard for you to get in there and be the
00:01:10new guy but if they’ve had a bad
00:01:12relationship or they’re frustrated with
00:01:14the supplier because you know they’re
00:01:16not delivering on time or a whole host
00:01:18of other issues then that’s an
00:01:19opportunity for you to come in and be
00:01:21able to be the new supplier so start
00:01:23talking to customers find a pain point
00:01:25that they have find the need and then
00:01:27you’re working around a paying customer
00:01:30which is the best way to grow a business
00:01:31if you can so it’s exciting part for you
00:01:34right now in this early stage I would
00:01:35start talking to customers find that
00:01:37pain point build around what they need
00:01:39and you’re on your way to building a
