Mr. Checkout Distributors Reviews

I chose Mr. Checkout vs. another company that offers a similar service. During my initial call with Zinnia I asked why I should choose Mr. Checkout vs. the other company. Zinnia told me that the other company does a blast email and that is it. Mr. Checkout will stay involved with me as a "partner". Well, nothing could be further from the truth.

After paying my $5000 deposit, I was given access to the database of their "clients". I was disappointed to see there were a LARGE amount of smoke shops - not my prospects. I was also disappointed to see how many duplicate entries were being counted in the 1000 number. When I asked Joel about this, I was told they were in the process of cleaning up their database. Really?

I received three emails with interested parties on them - a total of 24 company names. There were duplicates and wrong telephone numbers on the lists. When I called three of the names, I was told they did not know about my product. I have never received any accounting for the $5000. I only owed $250 in commissions after the first 6 months.

They have not done any work on my behalf after the first month. I only hear from them if I contact them. When I spoke with Joel and asked for half of my payment back since the commissions stream was so low, I was told that I needed to send them updates so they could work on my account again. Really? You have $5000 (a lot of money to a small business) of my money and need further reason to work on my account?

I have contacted a lawyer in Florida and I am contacting the trade journal that is running their ad so other small businesses don't make this mistake.

Mr Checkout a scam

After careful review of my product they offered me a only $2500 to post a landing page on their network! When did DSD mean "sell landing pages for manufacturers?"

Beware of these guys and RANgeMe and any other DSD/Broker/Distributer who will not sell for a percentage of sales. I think I am going to make a webpage and offer my services to advertise products to my "network" of retailers.

STAY AWAY FROM MR. CHECKOUT

We had a similar experience with Mr. Checkout. I will go into the long story later but STAY AWAY this is a scam. I would love to know if anyone out there has contacted a lawyer as would love to do a class action suit if we can get many people together. I do see many reports like ours on various websites. Too bad we didn't see it sooner...

Oh, at the time he claimed he had affiliations with Shark Tank and had pics & testimonials from all Shark Tank celebs. Knowing what I know now I didn't believe it so I reached out to all of them. Very happy to say Lori Grenier's office emailed me back and as I thought she had no affiliation with Mr. Checkout and told me her legal team would be contacting them. It is now since removed off their site. I intend to be a thorn in their side until I get my $2500 back as well warn others.

Very awful scam distributor

We are small businesses and we're looking for distributors and unfortunately soon after rely Mr. checkout.

After paying my $5000 deposit, they never showed up again and even they did not answer email and calls. They have not done any work and absolutely they are a scam and they just ripped off the start-up company like ours.

We have reported them.

I'm not to report anything like this, but when you speak to numerous clients saying they were ripped off by Mr Checkout, I feel it is my duty to protect small businesses. If you are looking to get your product into convenience stores, do not use Mr checkout. I have heard from MULTIPLE companies that their services are a complete scam.

How it works:

You pay Mr Checkout Distributors $25.00 per store to have your product placed on the front counter of convenience stores with pictures and addresses. The scam is where these distributors place the product on the front counter and take a picture, but only to have ir removed right after the picture.

After the test you are given a list of distributors who not only do not answer your call, but numbers may be disconnected. I don't know how these guys get away with this, but it is just wrong.

If you are looking to get your product into convenience stores, you should look into other resources.

Very dissapointed

My small skin care Company was approached by Mr. Checkout and requested my products for review, and were pretty persistent. When we finally connected, they requested full size products for review and consideration. I have a SKU of about 15+ -high end organic skin care products and for a small business this is costly. But I fully understand this is the only way to get your products reviewed and there is no guarantee. But then to receive an email with a one line response saying "Sorry we regret to inform that we will not be representing your brand" was a complete let down. If a small company is expected to send in their products and put out money upfront, there should at least be some sort of rating system and feedback that one can receive from the Distributor!! Such a disappointment! When asked for more information on their review process and asking for feedback on the products, I got crickets.Thanks for nothing Mr. Checkout!! After reading other reviews on this forum about them, I guess I will consider myself lucky at this point!

It's only as good as you use it.

We actually had a really good experience with this company. They introduced us to a few distributors initially who all trialed our line and 4 of 5 picked it up. Right now we're up to 23 distributors in 14 states and they are helping us get into Publix.
