So my father decided to start a business in providing product

> Need customers

Sounds like your dad is half right. You do need to knock on some doors and try to get customers that way. Also, farmers stick together so if you can sell one, there is a good chance his farmer friends will fall like dominos.

But on the other side, you should probably do some advertising. Radio or TV both might be worth it. Any way you can get the email addresses of the farmers? Send them a mass email.

You gotta find a way to get your pitch in the ears of farmers: "Farming supplies at lower prices than you are used to"

Don't sweat it anon, soon your product will sell itself. Those same retarded farmers cucked themselves by voting for trump. YFW trump puts 20% tax on imports from Mexico, yfw majority of imports from mexico are farming equipment and the like. Soon you'll be able to name any price you want with the massive amount of stress that will be put on the farming economy

Where is the website. I want to see your lighting fixtures and fan prices.

Well, you won't know untill you do it. Now shut up and go visit those business

I'm not in sales so I don't have a definitive answer, but I have friends in sales so I hear the stories...is enticing people away from their suppliers via pricing not THE most common way to get customers?

Especially since you're talking about commodity products....brand loyalty for commodities is way behind price and functionality when it comes to making a buying decision. I mean who has loyalty to a fuckin teat wipe company? Loyalty to suppliers is another thing but again, that's where price, functionality, and relationship building will come into play.

Are you just scared about having to cold call people? You aren't going to attract customers en-masse for niche commodity products without cold calling and getting your foot in the door.

Cold calling isn't a waste even if you don't sell immediately, because getting face to face with customers to *assess their needs* will be key to having a good offering for the future. There's more to selling than acting like a travelling merchant in Zelda who just offers 3 products and who you can't talk to...it's a two-way process: you need to know what they think of the main suppliers, what products aren't up to par, what they're willing to spend more/less on, etc etc etc, and then you need to adapt to these market demands.

Just bite the bullet and cold call... companies are used to sales agents calling all the time. It's hard...I know amazing sales people who said they used to literally puke before going into their first clients, but it pays off. It'll be good for you, seriously.

no money in that. sell houses.
