Great news! Your concept passed initial testing and went on to more rigorous, quantitative testing. The results there were promising and you've decided to launch the new product! Now, you need to identify potential suppliers and distribution partners.
For this piece of your course project, you will complete the following:
• Create a list of at least three potential suppliers (preferably using real-life suppliers, but you may use fictitious names if you can't locate an existing company that supplies that material).
• Create a list of at least three potential channel partners (wholesalers, retailers, etc.).
• Using the companies listed in your supplier list; create a diagram of suppliers that traces your offering back to its raw materials.
• Using the companies listed in your channel partner list; create a flowchart that shows at least three potential pathways to get your product/service to the consumer.
• Include ½ page write-up that discusses the value that each supplier and channel partner contributes to the development and distribution of your offering.
• Make sure to include an APA formatted title page. Use NoodleBib to document your sources and to complete your APA formatted reference page and in-text citations
• Your final assignment should be proofread for correct spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Please remember to follow APA guidelines for in-text citations and a reference page for all written assignments.
