Can I put a product in Walmart and tell users they can get it cheaper elsewhere - in Walmart?

If you don’t put your product in Walmart is your product guaranteed to be a failure?

Have you ever heard of anybody releasing a wildly successful app and it not being in the Apple app store?

Are you aware that there are many many many more stores like Walmart than there are stores like the Apple app store?

Tell that to all of the low end TV manufacturers, game systems (see Sega), toy manufacturers, and back in the day musicians who went out of their way to create an edited version just for Walmart.

That proves nothing. Those products would not have failed if they were not in Walmart because there are plenty of other outlets instead of just two.
