Your stock isn't dead.
Your buyer list is too small to prove otherwise.
Nobody in this trade has a demand problem. They have a reach problem. The twenty buyers you always call are not the market, they're just the part of it you can see.
Why hiring another rep doesn't fix it
- A salesperson can only sell to the people they already know. You're buying one more phone book, not more reach.
- Your buyer list is mostly one country, so "there's no demand" usually means "there's no demand here."
- When the calls dry up you discount, and the discount quietly becomes the price.
What a market read does instead
- Price it. Every line checked against what it is actually fetching in the UK, Europe, Asia and Australia.
- Find who's buying. The companies already selling that brand in the market that pays best, by name.
- Go and sell it. Sequences from your own domain. Your team runs them, or ours does.

The math on sales hires doesn't work for most distributors.
Hiring is slow and expensive
The median wholesale sales rep earns $66,780 (BLS). Add benefits and payroll tax and you're close to $95k a year, before a single deal closes and before commission. Getting them up to speed takes about six months, and they still might not work out.
Lead gen stops at the meeting
Agencies book you calls, then vanish. Nobody negotiates the price. Nobody chases the PO. Nobody calls the buyer back in March for the reorder.
Stock that sits bleeds margin
Branded stock ages. Every week it sits in the warehouse, the resale price drifts down and your margin goes with it. Electronics fall fastest, but a season-end line or a discontinued model behaves the same way. Speed to buyer is everything.
Current client results
Our flagship. We run their sales end to end in their name: listings, replenishment offers, price moves, new-buyer outreach and channel expansion across marketplace, BNPL and wholesale buyers. The $2.6M above is a single managed account. The whole relationship runs at eight figures a year, and every deal still crosses their desk for approval.
This client sells refurbished headsets, speakers and tablets out of the US. We run their export desk under their name: outreach, quotes, negotiation, then every confirmed order to their ops team. In a few months that took the desk from a standing start to roughly $500k a month, with live deals open across Europe's biggest refurb marketplaces and distributors.
Both are current clients, invoiced by Distril LLC. We name them because the numbers should be checkable. Their buyers stay unnamed, and so will yours. Full breakdown on the call.
FIG. 08 · FOUNDER, PORTRAIT
You work with the founder, not an account manager.
Distril is run by Adam Burge. He's in the deals daily: the outreach, the quotes, the negotiations, the reorders. When you sign on, your stock becomes his problem too.
One layer. No handoffs, no juniors learning on your buyers.
20,000+ buyers and companies on file.
Collected and maintained across our client operations since 2024: Amazon and marketplace sellers, distributors, wholesalers, retailers, refurbishers, BNPL and incentive channels, exporters and trading desks. Strongest in the USA, then Europe, with active buyers in Mexico, the Middle East, Africa including South Africa, Asia and Australia.
This is the point of hiring us instead of a cold-start rep. Week one, your stock lands in front of buyers who already answer us. Touch the regions to see where they sit.
Two ways to buy. Both on the page.
Most agencies in this trade quote on a call. Here is the whole thing.
You run it
The software your own salespeople log into.
- Every line priced against the UK, Europe, Asia and Australia
- Sales sheets built per market, ready to send
- The companies already selling your brands, by name
- Outreach and replies, sent from your own domain
- Setup sprint in month one, we map your stock file for you
Priced on lines under management, not per head. Add as many of your people as you like. Month to month.
$3,000 adds a bigger book, warmed sending on your domains, list building per line per market, and a monthly review with a human.
Start with the softwareWe run it
Our team sells your stock, under your name.
- Everything in SellerSync, run for you
- We work the buyers, negotiate and close
- Every email goes out as your company, from your domain
- You approve every deal before it lands
- We work with your team on paperwork and logistics
$5,000 covers one market, two selling days a week, up to 150 active lines. Add a market for $750. Add a selling day for $1,000.
The 1% is on goods value only. Nothing on freight, duty or tax. It drops to 0.75% above $250k a month and 0.5% above $750k.
Apply for the deskThe guarantee, on the deskAn order from a new buyer inside 30 days, or there's no second month.
No contract either way. If we do not land it we stop, and you keep the buyer contacts, the sales sheets and the sequences we built for your stock. The 1% only ever applies to stock we actually sell.
Thirty days is a real deadline, so the conditions are the things that make it possible: a stock file with your price floors inside 7 days, two working email accounts on your domain, deals approved or rejected within 2 business days, and the floors you set held for the month. The clock starts the day your stock file and inboxes are live, not the day you sign.
Because the clock is that short, we only put the guarantee on when we are confident. The desk needs roughly $1.5M a year of stock you would actually let us sell. If you are under that, or we do not think your lines clear in 30 days, we will say so on the call and point you at the software instead.
We don't take every client. Built for
- Distributors, wholesalers, closeout buyers, traders and refurbishers of branded consumer goods, in any category
- Companies with real stock and an admin team that can process orders
- Owners who want closed orders, not another list of "qualified leads"
Not for
- Retail or direct-to-consumer sellers
- Anyone who wants leads handed over to work themselves
- Companies expecting us to hold stock or run logistics
- Brokers who never take title to the goods
Questions distributors actually ask
Q-01How does white label work day to day?
You give us two email accounts on your main domain. We write as your team, in your name, with your signature. Buyers never see Distril. Internally you get full visibility: every thread, every quote, every number.
Q-02Who owns the buyer relationships?
You do, permanently. Contacts, conversations and accounts sit on your domain and in your records from day one. If we stop working together, all of it stays with you.
Q-03How exactly is the 1% calculated?
On the goods value of what we invoice, and nothing else. Freight, insurance, duty and tax are all excluded, so the fee is the same whether a deal ships one way or another. It falls to 0.75% above $250k a month and 0.5% above $750k. You see the statement before anything is invoiced.
Q-04Do I have to take the desk, or can I just have the software?
Just the software is fine, and for a lot of companies it is the right answer. SellerSync starts at $2,000 a month and your own salespeople run it. Plenty of clients stay there. If your stock is moving but nobody has time to work the buyers, that is when the desk starts to make sense.
Q-05What exactly do I keep if it doesn't work out?
Every buyer we introduced you to, with the contact details and the live threads, since those conversations happened on your domain and in your name from day one. The sales sheets we built from your stock. The sequences and scripts we wrote for your lines. All of it is yours to keep using. The one thing that does not come with you is SellerSync itself, which is the software the work runs on rather than something we produced for your book.
Q-06What do you need from us to start?
Three things: a catalog with costs and price floors, two email accounts on your main domain, and one admin contact for order processing. Onboarding usually takes under two weeks.
Q-07How do we know what you're doing all month?
A weekly pipeline report: every conversation, every quote, every deal stage. And since the inbox sits on your domain, you can open any thread yourself, any time.
Q-08Do you handle shipping or invoicing?
No. Your team ships and invoices, like they do today. We bring the deal, get the PO and manage the buyer relationship.
Q-09Can you work leads we already have?
Yes, and it's often the fastest first win. Dormant accounts and old inquiry lists usually hold deals nobody has chased in months.
Q-10Which products and regions do you cover?
Any branded consumer goods. Our own track record to date is deepest in consumer electronics and IT hardware, and we will say so plainly on a call rather than pretend otherwise, but the pricing engine and the buyer discovery work the same way whatever the category. On regions, SellerSync prices against the UK, Europe, Asia and Australia, and our buyer network is strongest in the USA and Europe with active buyers in the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and Australia.
There are two ways this goes
Keep holding it
- The same buyers get the same offer again
- The price drifts down another few points a quarter
- Cash stays tied up in a pallet nobody has asked for
- Eventually it goes to a liquidator at a number you would not have accepted a year ago
Put it in front of the market
- You find out what the line actually clears for in four regions
- You get the names of companies already selling that brand there
- Your team works them, or ours does, from your domain
- An order from a new buyer inside 30 days, or there is no second month
The read costs nothing and takes us two days. The only thing it can tell you is something you did not know about your own stock.
Put your stock in front of buyers this month.
Send us ten lines you would rather not be holding. We will come back with where each one is listed right now, what it is fetching, and which buyers are already moving that brand. No charge and no pitch attached.
