Sales Distributorship

It's an older concept, and it was more popular in the 80's.

My grandfather became a multi-millionaire using this concept, selling Gerald TV converters, Danby appliances and other items via exclusive/regional wholesale relationships with manufacturers & producers.


     
 

We're Buyers

Sales Brokers / "Personal Shoppers"




Essentially, a modern day version is sales enablement. We're buyers, we help you buy at wholesale, as a "broker" so we maintain your privacy and haggle for you.. a "personal shopper" is also a term for individuals, but for business.. we help you get great deals. My family was always frugal and always looking for a deal, let us help you buy whatever you need at the best deal possible.





Jim Semple

Who am i?



"I'm originally from Ontario, living and working out of the Okanagan valley, BC (Kelowna, Vernon, Penticton, Osoyoos) area. I can buy solar at wholesale for you via my sales distributor arrangement in BC, Canada from this company named Northern Sun Power.. German engineering & solar design with production in China as well, so if you're going to buy a solar system please visit my CanDev solar info page to read more about how I can help. As a tech guy, I built solar software for Apple (Israeli branch for video games) and also a uniformity grid for PV/photovoltaic output testing for my buddy Scott — who is the President of Sciencetech in London, Ontario."



Entrepreneur / Innovator / Intrapreneur


3M taught me innovation, honestly.. its one of the best companies in the world. Never had anyone treat me as kindly/well-intentioned since I left there to pursue my own entrepreneurial ventures. I learned from Gerry MacDonald a great boss/mentor how to run client-facing meetings, gather feedback and database/systems design. Received my Six Sigma "green belt", its the 5-9s of uptime, or 99.999% We learned how to do proper risk assement/management, how to run projects to save the company money. In fact, I worked in eCommerce/pricing product lists, "Trading Partner" (which was the CRM/ERP software for 3M's customer sales/service division), and finally won a "CAPS" Top 10 award for Canada for saving 3M Canada millions of dollars in sales volume rebates. It would form the basis for my IT consulting career over the next 2 decades after leaving 3M to travel to 30 countries and start my own thing, while bootstrapping all of my ideas/websites. They were surprised I left, offered me a leave to reconsider joining, after my travels. I'll never know what would have happened if I went back there, because it was a fork in my road, food for my soul and becoming an entrepreneur, instead of simply an intrapreneur (innovator inside the company) I was out on my own, of my own volition!



Luxury Cars — August


Do you need to buy an exotic luxury car? I have a handshake agreement with the GM at August Luxury Motorcars to buy any Ferrari, Lamborghini, Porsche and other luxury motorcars on behalf of someone, I'll maintain your privacy as a buyer/broker agreements and I'll work hard to get you the best deal on the vehicle you want.




Winery, Distillery, Brewery?


I'll promote your products, sell them on the road via my hockey spirits branding.. looking to sell ex-player brands like Gretzky 99 Estates, Chris Pronger has JRNY, Ed Belfour spirits, etc in BC eventually... while also I'm looking to partner with craft distilleries to produce my Goss Tea ("gossip tea", spill the tea) brand, plus my syrups line of Semple Syrup (simple syrup / sugar water mix for cocktails), and also coffee producers for my Big 10 Coffee brand specifically for hockey players, and athletes.
