Is there a web site or documents where I can find information on how
to sell my product to the different consumer mail catalogs such
as ............strategies involved...........advantages of listing in
more than one catalog?.......is it worth while to have an exclusive
with a catalog company?....are there any secrets of the trade in
dealing with the catalog companies re: pricing, acceptance, etc.
I know that I can go straight to the catalog company and get info on
what they NEED from me, but I am interested more in how they look at a
product, how they bargain, how they try to get more money out of me by
charging for copy, photos, etc. (and what I can do to counter this).
Also a quick question: is there another way to search "Google Answers"
besides their own publically  touted method?
Many thanks.
Steve
