How to start selling barbecue grills

Apollocherry · 07-08-2013, 01:51 AM

Which one is preferred by American people: 3 burner, 4 burner or 6 burner Gas BBQ? I am in charge of selling barbecue grills. But I do not know how to start. Thank you if you could help me!

I thin kit depends on your area/region. Much more gas grills and pellet smokers sold up north than in Texas. For sure people "prefer" cheapo unless they are serious Q'ers

It would depend on the size of the grill.

Send me one of each and I will tell you which I like better.

This is a good point. The Brethren stamp of approval can be huge. You should send us all some, and we'll give you all the feedback you need!

for your question here's an excerpt

"Consumers say an easy ignition system (68 percent) and large grilling surface (55 percent) are the most important features of a gas grill, followed by durability (52 percent) and ease of cleaning (43 percent)."

I was only half joking. Although I think the wife might kill me if I had 3 more grills in the backyard.

I like a 6 burner myself.

And a sample or two would be nice. My wife doesn't mind if it's free.

Woof.

General For Sale/Trade may be a more appropriate venue for the OP, but what the heck.

Apollo, while you'll not find a better more helpful bunch than these mooks 'round here, and they're being as helpful as they can, I would suggest to you that asking great BBQ folks grilling questions is like asking asking swimmers about diving maneuvers. Similar, but not same...

sparky' · 07-09-2013, 12:59 PM

no flavor w/ gas.

Are you going to be selling Chinese made grills in America?
Or are you going to sell American made grills in China?
Or what exactly will you be selling, and where will you be selling it?
