Trying to re-sell Kobo - if there's company rep at the forum, please get back

Yar-PocketBooker · 09-14-2011, 05:04 PM

I hope there's somebody from Kobo company at this forum...

I am a seller of electronic readers with a little store in Brooklyn, NY, planning to expand to the at least one more store in the City.
Two months ago I wrote to Kobo with the request to become their reseller. They replied pretty fast, saying that at that moment they were in the process of negotiations with the large US distributor and that those negotiations should have be over in "couple of weeks" and I should contact that distributor... I did contact it, as I'm registered with them for other products, but they still to this time do not carry Kobo...
I wrote several times to the contact in Kobo that replied to me, but in vain - no answer from Kobo...

If there is a company representative at this forum, could you please help with pointing me to the right person who does new business?

Thank you!

This is not an official Kobo support forum. Some of the tech developers are here from time to time, but I would not count on a response. Todd Humphrey is the EVP for Business development. This is his LinkedIn profile.
