“HIRA has really launched Pain Relief.cc and Colloidal Products nationally.

As a manufacturer and entrepreneur all rolled into one, the task of recruiting reps, is at best a very daunting task. HIRA has resolved that problem and has made that chore as easy as 1-2-3. The reps are finding markets for us that really appreciate the quality of our product, and not the sizzle of advertising. The spirit of our reps, and the energy of HIRA sustains a steady growth for us. Thank you HIRA.”

Dear Mike:

I wanted to express my appreciation to the entire HIRA organization and you for the extraordinary assistance provided to me by the group as a start-up independent representative.

Briefly, I found the materials supplied regarding building territories, selling proposition, sales performance appraisal and business/accounting planning to be invaluable.  More importantly, through the extensive network of HIRA representatives and the “Lines Available” service, I’ve been able to add key lines in the past 18 months that have truly sustained and provided growth for my business. 

Most importantly, I appreciate the professionalism of the membership, the camaraderie and their willingness to share experiences and advice.  Thank you again.

With kind regards,


Hubert “Hu” Hauser
Principal
