Frequently Asked Questions

Brand Guide FAQs

Common questions about brand guide resources and how they can help you choose and use your device.

How do I decide which brands to carry with limited shelf space?

Start with your customer base and price ladder, then pick one or two anchor brands per tier rather than spreading thin across a dozen names your staff barely knows.

What's the real difference between a house brand and a name brand for my margins?

House brands like Wulf Mods and Exxus Vape are typically priced to give you a wider margin at a comparable retail price, while a recognized name brand can pull in foot traffic through familiarity. A strong lineup usually leans on both.

How many brands does one category actually need?

For most categories, three to five well chosen brands cover your price tiers and customer preferences without diluting your buying power or your staff's product knowledge.

Do brand guides cover minimum order quantities and pricing tiers?

Yes, each guide notes typical case pack sizes and where a brand sits on price so you can plan an order that matches your budget and shelf space.

How do I know a brand will still be supported a year from now?

Look at how long the brand has been in continuous production, whether it has a track record of honoring warranty claims, and whether its parent company backs other established lines. That history tells you more than one hot product does.
