==================================================
WANTED: Gourmet Coffee & Espresso DISTRIBUTORS!
==================================================

==================================================
A AMERICAN COFFEE & ESPRESSO CO., INC.
--------------------------------------------------
We are a rapidly growing company that roast a
large variety of gourmet coffees.  We also make
flavored gourmet coffees, flavored iced teas, and
American made espresso machines.  We supply all of
the supporting products like creamer,sugar, Iced
Cappuccino, cups, etc.

We can offer many opportunities to persons with
entrepreneurial spirit.

Let's just take a few examples:

We are one of the few companies that make American
made espresso machines.  These machines are much
faster, less expensive to purchase, and easier and
less expensive to repair than the Italian
Machines.  You might be interested in selling
these machines to restaurants and gourmet coffee
stores.  We would sell machines to you at dealer
prices.  You could sell wholesale to restaurant
supply stores or directly to restaurants, gourmet
coffee stores, etc.

We offer a wide variety of gourmet and flavored
gourmet coffees.  Basically, you would probably
make about $1 per lb selling to restaurants or
gourmet coffee stores, a little more selling to
offices.  Selling direct to the end user, by
either through personal contact or mail order, you
would make about $3 - $7 per lb.

You might prefer to sell to other distributors.
We would pay you a commission for selling to other
distributors.  This would be selling to companies
that sell coffee to offices or restaurants.

We make gift boxes of coffees and teas.  These
sell in gourmet coffee stores and gift stores for
about $20 for the coffee boxes and about $15 for
the tea boxes.  We sell to them at $10.95 for
coffee and $7.50 for the tea box to the stores, by
the dozen.  You would receive 15% commission for
selling these boxes to gift stores.  This also
might be a good product to sell at retail prices
through mail, order, or to sell directly to the
end user.  They make great gifts for corporations
to give to preferred customers or employees.

You might prefer to hire and train others to sell
these gift boxes.  We would pay your salespeople
15% commission and you an additional 5% sales
manager override.  You and your salespeople
together must be selling at least $1000 per month
in order for you to receive the sales manager
override.  (You could look at this as a sales
manager override, or a bonus, or a volume
discount, it's just semantics.)

As you can see there are a great many
possibilities.  As I indicated earlier, we are a
very flexible company.  After you have a little
experience under your belt, you might determine
that some specific packaging or combination of
products might be especially marketable in your
area.  Probably we could make that special product
for you.  Maybe a custom label, different type of
bag, or packaging or whatever.

Sound exciting?  Give me a call at 310-675-0717 or
E-Mail me with your name, address, PHONE, and FAX.

Sincerely,

Patrick Johansen
