The Challenge:

Justin Hertz and his business partner, Adam Wait, knew nothing about how to penetrate the

market for e-cigarette supplies - neither of them even smokes. They spent eight months preparing

before they sold their first bottle in December 2014. For three months, they were operating from

Justin’s garage. They relied exclusively on business card handouts, word of mouth, and strong

customer service to expand their business - until they found Kinnek.

The Solution:

When Justin first heard about Kinnek, he thought: “so you're going to supply me with new leads -

where do I sign up?” He was excited to tap into a network of buyers actively looking for new

suppliers. Justin “love[s] everything about the platform, an all around positive experience.” He uses

Kinnek to quote automatically for standard items, draw on previous quotes for others, and quote

from scratch for unique requests. Knowing the value of communication, he responds to customer

inquiries as quickly as possible to keep his “responsiveness rating” above 90%.

The Results:

Today, besides spending $80 per month on Instagram, Liquid Bottles markets itself only through

Kinnek. Justin is logged on Monday to Friday and dedicates two days a week to building relation-

ships on the platform - he recently expanded his staff to have more time for it. Liquid Bottles is the

#1 e-liquid bottles supplier on Kinnek’s sales leaderboards, with a 5-star rating from 28 reviews.

“Kinnek is our only source of new business these days,” says Justin, “and a majority of customers

have repeated their orders.”
