Sponsored by Fast Moving Consumer Goods, the book delivers real-world strategies for entrepreneurs, brand owners, and consumer packaged goods (CPG) companies seeking to grow sales through wholesale, retail, e-commerce, and omnichannel distribution.

Drawing from decades of combined experience in consumer goods, retail distribution, marketing, and brand development, the authors provide readers with practical insights into how products move from manufacturers to distributors, retailers, and ultimately consumers.

"Many founders have great products but struggle to navigate the complexities of wholesale distribution," said Sandro Piancone. "Wholesale MBA was written to help entrepreneurs understand how the industry really works and provide a framework for building scalable, profitable consumer brands."

The book explores critical topics including:

• Building successful wholesale distribution networks
• Securing retail placements and growing store count
• Working effectively with distributors and brokers
• Developing profitable pricing strategies
• Managing retail relationships
• Creating consumer demand and increasing product velocity
• Scaling brands through omnichannel growth
• Avoiding common mistakes that prevent emerging brands from achieving national distribution

Co-author Jorge Olson, a recognized entrepreneur, brand builder, and marketing strategist, brings decades of experience helping companies increase revenue, improve distribution, and build stronger connections with consumers.

"Wholesale MBA bridges the gap between theory and execution," said Jorge Olson. "Whether you're launching a startup brand or expanding an established company, understanding wholesale fundamentals can dramatically accelerate growth and improve profitability."

The release comes at a time when many emerging consumer brands are seeking alternatives to expensive trial-and-error approaches. The book provides practical frameworks and actionable strategies designed to help founders make better decisions regarding distribution, retail expansion, sales management, and business growth.
