You cannot get the meeting
You reached out. No one wrote back. You do not know if the problem is your product, price, or pitch.

Does this sound like you?
You are stuck. No one will say why.
It happens before the meeting, after the meeting, and even after you reach the shelf.
02Trigger
The buyer went quiet
The meeting felt good. Then the replies stopped. No one told you why.
03Trigger
Your product is not moving
You got on the shelf. Sales are slow, promos cost too much, and the next review is close.
03The real problem
You do not need more advice. You need the right order.
Your broker says sell. Your designer says change the pack. Your ad team says spend more. They may all be right. But doing the right work at the wrong time still wastes money.
We find the first problem to fix. Then we build the plan around it.
You are not short on effort. You need a clear first step.
From online to in store
You proved people will buy it. Now make it work on a shelf.
We help online brands make the jump to retail without wasting time, money, or a good buyer meeting.

Why trust us
We have sat on both sides of the table.
We have sat with buyers who choose what gets on the shelf. We have also sat with founders who get five answers from five experts. CLD brings both views to one plan.
Tell the truth early
A hard truth in week one is cheaper than a kind lie in week twelve. We show our work and say what we do not know.
Protect each relationship
A bad intro can hurt both sides. We only make one when the fit and timing are right.
Do the work in order
The right work at the wrong time is still wrong. We find the first step before you spend.
Stay for the work
A plan is not enough. We lead the work and stay on it until it is done.
We show how we work, not a wall of logos. We share client results only with proof and permission.

Good questions
What people ask us first.
Is Coffee really free?
Yes. It is a free 30-minute call to find what to fix first. Some brands hire us next. Many just go do the work themselves.
Can you get my brand into stores?
No. Be careful with anyone who says they can. We get you ready and help you pick the right store. The buyer still makes the call.
Are you an agency or a broker?
Neither. We are your one partner. We find the real problem and lead the work. Brokers and agencies may help, but we keep them all rowing the same way.
What do Lunch and Dinner cost?
Lunch is paid and fixes one job. Dinner is ongoing. You get the price in writing after Coffee, before any work starts. We never quote a number before we know the problem.
