Hi,

Our company has developed a rapid biological monitoring technology for any water (cooling water, drinking water, process water, etc) or wastewater (activated sludge, BNR, UASB, etc) sample.

We plan on distributing world-wide and therefore need a world-wide sales and distribution network. What would be the best way to go about this?

Thank you,

Sounds like a valuable product!

Have you contacted local water treatment facilities?

Have you considered partnering with compaies that can address the contamination (ie your system detects contaminents, these guys go in with filters, treatment, etc.) ?

Do you have a method for treating the contaminents you detect?

can you duplicate a "mini" version of this for home testing?

I`d recommend http://www.manaonline.org/. It`s a nationwide trade group for manufacturers reps and agents. You can search for reps in your industry.

Here is what I would suggest:

Find out which tradeshows would be appropriate for your technology. Go to their website and view the list of previous exhibitors. Find the agents or distributors, check out their websites as a first screen and then make some calls. If there is an upcoming tradeshow, consider exhibiting and soliciting these intermediaries at the show.

Have you put out a press release or any other communication about this technology? Include a line about seeking intermediaries - the sharp ones may contact you.
