6 Ideas Mission
Our mission is to source inventive solutions for daily living. Since 2002 we have introduced unique items to the mail order industry as well as TV Shopping. Please consider contacting us if you are looking for a specific item.
We represent you too
Even though we are compensated by our principals, we are always looking out for your best interest. Most of the time we have already negotiated, on your behalf, the most competitive price points, taking into account your margin structure. For example, if a vendor tells us that their wholesale price is $10 for an item that retails for $19.95, we will explain that an $8 price point is needed to make it work in mail order. So we have already saved you 20%!
Substitute Items
Whether you have a vendor that will not or can not supply an item, we can source it for you! Many of our vendors have great relationships with their factories. They can send over an item and have it sourced within weeks. Additionally we have aligned ourselves with certain factories and trading companies that can get just about anything! Please keep us in mind.
Responsive
Follow up is the key to our success! Unless we are visiting you or attending a trade show, phone calls and emails are returned with in 2 hours. Product and Vendor information paperwork is normally turned around within 48 hours. 6 Ideas strives to be the most responsive rep you come across.
New Products
Our goal this year is to introduce you to over 50 products or product lines! You will receive or continue to receive email blasts on a weekly basis. 6 Ideas uses Constant Contact which is a great email marketing tool. This allows us to get you the information as quickly as possible!
Website
Check back weekly and visit the What’s New page. We hope to keep the site updated with all the latest and greatest offerings from 6 Ideas!
Testimonials
"Mr. Laner is very professional in his approach to finding products, working with me to develop new products; and finding new vendors. I am impressed with his attention to details, his follow up, and communication. Ken's enthusiasm is invigorating and I always enjoy hearing from him. He is constantly seeking the newest and the most exotic."
Denise Buchenot, Buyer, Starcrest Products
"Ken is always bringing us new innovations.
His follow up is great and that is a critical component to a good rep. Ken understands our business well so we don't have to always train new vendors on our requirements."
David Della Peruta, Buyer, Solutions Catalog
"Ken is one of our better reps. He finds the right products to fit our needs. I seldom worry about solving problems or follow up. 6 Ideas is a pleasure to work with!"
Theresa Watkins, Catalog Manager, Johnson Smith Company
