CoTradeCo TRADER program: Dealers & Sales reps. Expand your business.

Build your business, be more profitable, and improve service

You have an existing business, want to start a business, or already rep other related products and you are ready to add variety to your product lines or need redistribution solutions. Being a CoTradeCo dealer gives you access to a vast array of products and services at incredible wholesale prices. If you are looking for a more passive online income you might consider our Affiliate program

(Re)Distribution solutions

All kinds of people, industries, hobbies, and lifestyles use CoTradeCo products and services

You want to offer Brand X
but don’t have the volume

When a manufacturer won’t open you an account CoTradeCo is your answer. We work with our manufacturers to provide small to midsize companies access to brands they otherwise couldn’t carry or couldn’t sell competively at lower volumes.

You have an account with Brand X
but can’t make the minimums

We know what it’s like. You need 1 odd ball widget for a special request but the minimum order is a case of 12, or $500+ (or you can buy 1 with a $25 below minimum fee). If you can’t find it locally and you don’t want to wait for your next full order in 4 weeks, CoTradeCo can help.

Wholesale pricing
Dealers & Sales reps are given wholesale pricing and are free to choose their own sell price.

We offer highly competitive wholesale pricing so that you afford to make a substantial profit using CoTradeCo as a regular supplier/distributor for your business.

  • No-risk access to countless brands
  • No-hassles opening manufacturer accounts with high minimum orders
  • Easy online access and ordering to your wholesale prices in our main catalog
  • Short and sweet you are buying wholesale from us and reselling to your customers

Who should be a dealer?

  • Existing businesses who wish to grow/expand with new product lines
  • Businesses seeking redistribution between full orders
  • Individuals looking to start new businesses
  • Individuals and businesses who would prefer to do their own customer service
    and/or maintain separate branding

We take this relationship very seriously. Anyone with an ongoing business can apply for the dealer program. Considering the service and pricing we make available we require a credit application for anyone seeking terms and an interview to ascertain whether this type of relationship will be mutually beneficial.

What you get from CoTradeCo:

Access to TRADER ADMIN LOGIN

  • Export price sheets in Excel format
  • Place wholesale orders using our online catalog
  • Download catalogs and collateral. Get access to various marketing and promotional materials from our various vendors and those created by CoTradeCo for our sales reps and other marketing.
  • Get link codes for referral sales
  • Live online reporting coming soon! We are a small company, and our Trader Program is still very new. Thus our online reporting is still being developed. In the mean time we will provide reports on all sales generated through your dealer account by email as orders are generated.

Blind drop shipping
For branding purposes many companies don’t wish to reveal their relationship with CoTradeCo to their customers. We understand and will offer blind drop shipping.

Training with vendor and manufacturer reps
While we pride ourselves in being as knowledgeable as possible, we will arrange for personal meetings and trainings with many of the manufacturers we work with. Currently this is fairly limited to those living in the Southwest U.S. and select areas of the country for certain product lines. But under the right circumstances will even consider flying you in to spend some time with us and our vendor reps.

Assistance with your web presence
If you have a website or are thinking of starting one, CoTradeCo will use it’s knowledge and expertise to give advice and in some cases even directly assist in the construction of your site.

Leads directly from CoTradeCo
We want to build localized specialized representatives around the world. If you can cover a specific geographical area, especially outside of Southern California, and/or have special knowledge/focus in a particular industry or hobby Trader Dan will turn over leads generated from the website or phone calls to qualified dealer local to that lead.

Dealer finder
We will be implementing a Dealer finder resource on our site to help provide more personalized local service. Especially for retail customers seeking a local shopping experience we will direct these customers whenever possible to you based on geographical location and specialty. In all cases we would rather make a few less dollars to ensure local personal service than make a few extra bucks trying to provide long distance customer service. CoTradeCo is about building relationships.

Minimum participation requirements

  • Fill out a credit application (if seeking account terms)
  • Maintain a reasonable number of orders or sales volume per 6 month period
  • Filling out a sales rep/dealer agreement

Dealer program FAQ

1. What is CoTradeCo?

A New Time Trading Post, themed around the traditional old west trading post where individuals would meet not only to buy goods, but to meet other parties, and get news and information from around the world and even the trail ahead. CoTradeCo sells a wide variety of specialty product lines that cater to various industries, hobbies, and lifestyles. Our store and communities reflect these relationships. CoTradeCo is currently focused in industrial and personal safety as well as outdoor adventure. However, we do offer general household and other categories and hope to continue growing into a complete general store for work, life, and play.

2. Does it cost me anything?

NO! No strings, nothing hidden. Our entire business model is built around openness and ethical practices. CoTradeCo wants to work with you.

However, Dealer applicants who want terms must submit a credit application.

3. Do you provide training?

YES. We will consult by phone and email anytime. Because dealers produce a much higher volume than most sales reps we will work with you and your situation as best as possible to get personal training with CoTradeCo and our vendor and manufacturer reps.
