[QUOTE="Air, post: 678034, member: 15182"] I received a warm welcome and spent an insightful afternoon with Wim van Kraanen my counterpart in The Netherlands (Analogue Audio Products). We shared experiences with products, talked about the synergy between products and listened to some great music. The dinner with him and his wife was also memorable. Wim carry Pathos Acoustics, Rosso Fiorentino and also some other brands from mainly Italy. It was refreshing to have a transparent view of a different market with no attempt to over inflate sales figures. None of the bullshit of I sold 10 last week and I can't keep up with orders, or this is the next best thing to slice bread- you must have it. Wim is experienced and has a balanced view on the market and brands and his business model work in Holland, I believe. We also talked about problems with a brand or even product within brands. Locally I have come across sweeping statements that were made by other importers about some of the products in my basket and i was keen to establish what the facts are in Europe. I am happy to report that we are in agreement of what problems are typical and what are rumours propagated by others. We have agreed to share information in an attempt to foster collaboration to the benefit of our customers, for example, to share solutions about common faults in products and also to share workarounds or preventive measures. Of course, I floated the Air speaker concepts and designs with him, and i come back more inspired and excited about the project. Lastly, i also identified a few sleepers, based on his experience and sales stats that I will keep an eye on. I will post some pics I took in follow-up posts. Hope you enjoy! [/QUOTE]
