POCONO WHOLESALE RESELLER GUIDE

Our Reseller Mission
Pocono Wholesale's mission is to make you a successful reseller, whether you are selling our items in your storefront, via our catalogs or on a website or auction listing. We will never contact your customers directly. All customer service issues regarding your customers are handled by you. If you require assistance with a particular matter, need advice or information you are welcome to contact us and we will do our best to assist you.

Reseller Requirements
Pocono Wholesale does not have any specific requirements for resellers to begin using our services. We do not request a tax identification number to process your orders. There is no account set-up necessary. Subscription or membership fees will not be imposed on any reseller. Furthermore, there are no additional charges or fees for using our drop shipping service, which is explained below.

Selling Via Your Storefront
It is ideal for those wishing to sell our products via their storefront, to have the items on hand and displayed throughout their store. To do this, you will need to order the items ahead of time. It is suggested that at first, you purchase a small sampling of a variety of products that will integrate well with your other merchandise. Once you attain a good idea of what sells well, you can continually submit orders as required to maintain an inventory. In addition to keeping inventory on hand, many shoppes find it beneficial to also have our catalogs available at their checkout counter, enabling their customers to purchase products and have them shipped directly to their home. Prices listed in our catalogs are retail prices so you can make a great profit. Our company's name is NOT printed on any catalog either. This enables you to pass them off as your own. To purchase catalogs and order forms please visit our Catalogs page.

Selling Via Catalogs
Catalog sales are a great method of selling our merchandise and generating a profit for your business, fund, program or support cause. Catalog sales work best through community involvement and can be a great tool for a parent, family member or community member in raising funds for schools, sports and extra-curricular school groups, educational programs, religious and volunteer organizations and community development. Most of our customers successful catalog sales are generated by fundraising for educational programs. Our catalogs are a great source for profit whether used with your current fundraising program or when used alone. Prices listed in our catalogs are retail prices so you can make a great profit. Our company's name is NOT printed on any catalog either. This enables you to pass them off as your own. To purchase catalogs and order forms please visit our Catalogs page.

Selling Via The Web
Web merchants and auction sellers continually experience sales. This is mainly due to them being exposed to a larger buying group via the internet. There are two types of online sellers. There are those who wish to purchase the items ahead of time and ship them themselves to their customers. In those instances, you would follow the same style of buying and selling as a storefront merchant. Then there are those who wish not to purchase the items ahead of time. This works best for smaller businesses, start up businesses, stay at home parents who wish to have an additional income and online auctioneers. For these resellers drop shipping is invaluable because as explained below it provides you with the ability of offering your customers our products without any upfront costs, buying the merchandise ahead of time or keeping any inventory.
