The best advice on this topic available to the general public. August 2, 2009

I'd give this seven stars if so many were available!
Mr. Hall has done a remarkable job to take a complex subject and break down into easily understood advcie without getting bogged down into cliches or pie-in-the-sky hyperbole.
I have searched far and wide and have found three terrific volumes, but this one is the best of the three and is the only one available on Kindle. Note that I once had a bakery in which one of my signature products was franchised in Oregon using the moniker Billy Bob's Pot Pies. Although the franchise effort was ill-fated, as vice president of the corporation, I learned a good deal along the way.
I also learned why, these days, beginning franchises is all but dead unless you have really deep pockets. I also learned why trying to breaking into supermarkets is even deader than franchising.
Thus, Sell Your Specialty Food is my pick for food producers hoping to break into wholesale food marketing in any format, but readers and researchers also should read Selling My Food To supermarkets; Kitchen To Market; Gourmet To Go - C. William Anderson, aka Travis C. Ward.

Since I am just trying to break into the specialty food market, I found this book to be very helpful and loaded with useful information. I'm sure I will return to the book again and again as an excellent resource.
Sell Your Specialty Food Review July 11, 2009

This book provides very good basic information and resources that are really focused on the specialty food market, unlike other books that are titled to be industry-specific but turn out to be just general business books.
Most of what I needed to get started, and plenty motivation to make it happen! October 22, 2009
