An ad on page 42 of yesterday’s Australian Financial Review claimed to be able to help suppliers achieve distribution in newsagencies and other channels. Having never heard of Future Markets Australia, I did some digging and found their website, the Shanghai Charlie website – about the person who registered the website and a weird document about health service issues.
Newsagents have GNS, other wholesalers and marketing groups to facilitate access to the network. The last thing we need is a middleman taking a cut for what others already cover.
