Interest in Cigars Rising after Trade Relaxations

LOS ANGELES, Feb. 13, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Despite recent relaxations in some, but not all, trade restrictions with Cuba, Cuban cigars are still not sold in U.S. stores. According to convenience store wholesaler LA Top Distributor, however, many convenience store and tobacco retailers have been flooded with phone calls from customers asking if they have Cuban cigars for sale. Although convenience store owners are not able to get their customers Cuban cigars, every one of those phone calls is a great opportunity to sell potential customers on a different high quality cigar alternative. Yet, to capitalize on this boost, stores need to make sure that they are partnered with an outstanding wholesaler such as LA Top Distributor, one of Los Angeles' top cigar wholesale distributors. If store owners have made sure that their shelves are stocked with the most popular brands of cigars, then there are several things they can do when a phone call asking about Cuban cigars come in:

1. The first thing that a store owner needs to do when a customer asks them about the availability of Cuban cigars is explain that they are currently not available anywhere in the United States. If the owner simply says that he or she does not carry them, the customer may hang up, assuming that the next store they call may have them. If you engage the customer in a conversation about how the change in economic activity has yet to allow them in any U.S. store, you are proving to the customer that you are both knowledgeable and helpful.
2. Next, a wise store owner will immediately transition the conversation by asking the customer about their preferred type of cigars. Since the caller is interested in Cuban cigars, owners can be confident that he or she is a regular cigar smoker who already has a preferred brand available from American cigar distributors.  
3. Once store owners have identified what the customer likes, then they can begin to sell them on the merits of the products that are available in their store supplied by LA Top Distributor. Hopefully, this friendly and informative conversation will convince the caller that, although Cuban cigars are not available, shopping at their store is the next best thing.
