product literature, ad slicks and even help our dealers design some of their

Is
There a Co-op Advertising Programs?
Waterloov has one of the best
advertising programs in the business. Whereas a lot of companies say, "we
have a great program, we cover 100%. If you look at it, its limited to maybe
$100. What good is $100 yearly limit?. Our program is unlimited in the amount you
get back over the course of a year. Program is only available to authorized,
certified dealers who have purchased marketing and advertising rights to a
Primary Marketing Territory.
What are your Small Business
Opportunities?
There are several options to purchase and deal direct with
Waterloov::
1. Purchase job-by-job as an independent contractor (so long as your territory
is not licensed or assigned to an exclusive distributor) with no commitments or minimums.
However, there are no advertising or marketing rights associated with this level
of opportunity. No minimum purchase and no licensing fees are required. Simply click
here to go to the Contractor Purchase Agreement.
2. As a Limited Dealer where your are, for example, the only
roofer that can represent and sell Waterloov in a specific geographical area to
your own customers. This option is only available where an exclusive distributor
does not exist. No advertising rights or marketing rights are granted. In the
event an exclusive distributor exists, you must deal direct with the exclusive
distributor.
Click here to go to the Limited Dealership Agreement. At some point to
effect or maintain the Limited Dealership a licensing fee is required.
3 As a dealer with primary marketing and advertising rights, you enjoy co-op advertising opportunities.
As long as you purchase your minimum guaranteed inventory per year you have the
primary rights to market and advertise
the Waterloov trade name in a specific geographical territory. You purchase
direct from Waterloov unless Exclusive Distribution rights have been assigned
for the geographical area to another entity. Click
here to go to Preliminary Dealer Agreement and Application. An initial
purchase of 5 boxes of product is required to begin your dealership. At some
point to fully effect all benefits of Primary Marketing Rights a license fee
will be required.
This option takes 90% of the guess work out of how to market, advertise,
and run the business with unskilled personnel for both sales and marketing. It is complete with a startup package containing everything down to business forms,
business cards, sales aids, models, etc. and enough inventory to recoup nearly
half of the initial total investment. It also includes also a two
week installation training course broken into two one week intervals, and a week
of sales and marketing training broken into two and three day segments.
This turn-key option is based on the retail sales methods we've used at our Red
Bank, NJ retail installation division since 1989 which utilizes
just one full time installer and two part time sales people (one doubling as
manager).
4. as an exclusive distributor where you may or may not
elect to hold primary marketing rights. Call 1-800-841-7246 (RAIN) or email
larry@waterloov.com
to obtain the specifics.
As a licensed dealer with primary marketing or exclusive distribution rights you'll have a business that
once you develop it, will have a cash or resale value, commensurate with your
efforts, which can be sold and transferred to a new owner.
Usually, a small business opportunity of this caliber would cost tens of
thousands of dollars and then require you
pay a royalty of 4-to-6% based on your gross income. To learn more click
here. Why Invest in Primary
Rights to Market and Advertise the Waterloov name?
What If I Already Know I Want to Get
Started, Is There a Start-up Package?
Yes, the start-up package consists of enough inventory to do your first average
size job along with everything you need to sell your first Waterloov job.
Complete with manuals, videos, a model, and so on. Click here Getting
Started to see what's included.
What Would my Competitive Position be in the
Market Place?
All other gutter protection manufacturers only manufacture one product and are a
bit limited. Waterloov is the only company that manufactures a full line of
gutter guards. If a customer, needs the best, we have the best--Waterloov.
Nothing in the world will outperform this product. But say you have a customer
who maybe doesn't need the best. We have the Care-Free vinyl and aluminum
products. These products are superior to all our competition in how they perform
with respect to handling water and debris. As a dealer, you should never loose a
quotation to another product because you have a full range from the bottom to
the top, price wise, product wise, and performance wise at your disposal.

What are the Advantages of Representing More
than One Product?
Representing more than one product enables you to be an independent agent
instead of having to say to your customer, "I'm sorry, this is the only one
you can have." Instead you can represent a full line of products. You are
literally working for you customer instead of for one particular product. When
you're working for your customer you can make recommendations, "In the back
of your home you have a heavy debris situation and there's nothing I'd recommend
other than (Waterloov). However, in the front of your home I can save you a lot
of money with a lesser product. We can get away with using one of the Care-Free
products and save you a lot of money." This gives your customer options. And with
these options, our experience is that 99% of customers opt to put Waterloov on
all the way around as opposed to doing a little bit with this product and a
little bit of that product. They like consistency and quality. If, on the other
hand, money is an issue, you have another product to serve them as well and you
still made a sale.
