Ryan Kugler : The Liquidation and Closeout Business
Episode 115
with Ryan Kugler of Plan B, A5 Events and Ideal Content
Ryan Kugler is the president and owner of three companies: Plan B, one of the nation’s largest secondary wholesalers; A5 Events; and Ideal Content.
Born in Chicago, Ryan moved to Los Angeles at a young age where he took an interest in the film industry and made his way onto several studio lots, becoming friends with actor Ted Danson.
During breaks from school, Ryan worked for the family business DVA, which bought and sold VHS tapes. After finishing school, he moved to Florida to work full time at DVA in sales. It took him only a short time to learn the ropes and he quickly moved up to buyer, soon followed by VP of purchasing.
In 2013, Ryan left DVA because he saw the writing on the wall (DVDs were on the decline and many people were watching films on demand). Over the next few years, he started three companies: Plan B, which buys and sells closeouts from manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers; A5 Events, which produces corporate events for large corporations and nonprofit organizations; and Ideal Content, a marketing company that works with Fortune 500 companies to produce new and unique high-end marketing products.
Listen to this information-packed BizSoup Podcast Radio episode with Ryan Kugler about the liquidation and closeout business.
Talking points include:
● How to buy and sell unwanted inventory.
● Why cash is king.
● Taking steps to get rid of inventory.
● Why there is competition for inventory.
