In today's episode, our guest is Carlo Lucatino. He is the founder of ACG Sales & Marketing. He is a Solid Sales and Marketing Professional with over 30 years of Retail Brick & Mortar and e-commerce experience. ACG Sales & Marketing represent several Toy Companies as well as other categories such as Hair Accessories, Travel Accessories, Scooters, Skates, and HBA products. In today’s episode, he discusses how to combine Amazon Operation with Selling to Big Box Stores.
Takeaways:
- Don’t put all your eggs in one basket(Work with multiple retailers).
- If the product is a private label start selling on big box stores first and If tis a branded product start selling on Amazon first and then move to big box stores
- New sellers can get reviews using the amazon buying program
- At the starting point, the conversion rate should be 30%
Quote of the Show: For a branded product that goes out to the market, we would sell on Amazon first to help promote the product. So, I look at Amazon not only for selling but also as a marketing tool. They can help promote the brand, and after that we bring it out to big-box and other retailers.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
