• Australia A2 Trade Partners failure
http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/hangover-joes-and-the-the-hangover-recovery-shot-announce-australian-distributor-partnership-with-a-2-trade-partners-156998745.html

NEW YORK, June 4, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- BevNET Live Conference -- Hangover Joe's, maker of The Hangover Recovery Shot™, the official licensed product of "The Hangover" Movies and the USA's #1 leading hangover recovery product, announced today a partnership with A 2 Trade Partners, a leading Australian beverage product distributor.

A 2 Trade Partners has more than 34,000 established distribution contacts throughout Australia and New Zealand, including various supermarkets, convenience stores, and other establishments. The company is run by the husband and wife team of Matt and Lisa Kesby who possess years of experience in the restaurant and alcoholic beverage industries.



Being a "big" business that has 34,000+ connections, doesn't appear to be much info about their company:

Matt Kesby does not list being involved in A2 Trade Partners in 2012, likely something he's not proud of, possibly a scammer as well:

Imagine you and your key people being able to free up their time and focus on their highest priority strategic activities.

QUESTION: What impact would there be on Your Business when your Sales People Double the number of Business Development Meetings they have every week?

HOW COULD YOU ACHIEVE THIS? Answer: Have each of your Sales People in Australia Supported by a Sales Coordinator in our Philippines office.

ALL OF A SUDDEN: Your Sales People can hand over much of the administration work to their sales coordinator, fully dedicated to their success. We all know great sales people hate filling out paper work and are generally not the best for typing up notes in the CRM. So why fight it, in fact, why waste the hourly rate of your sales people on typing, when this can be done by their Sales Coordinator for less than $9 per hour. How? We can show you a simple step that means your Sales people will never have to type up post meeting notes again, allowing them to get back in front of the customer and sell.
