I would like to do a little "market research."
Now, I know some of you guys don't need a distributor except for the initial purchase, so some of this might now apply to you.
In your mind, what makes a "good" distributor?
Low prices?
Free shipping?
Takes credit cards (no fees on credit cards)?
Cash discounts?
Service after the sale?
Support of local "shows, events, charities, leagues", etc?
Available for tech support "after hours" (after 5pm, weekends, holidays, etc?
In home service available (even on machines not orginally purchased from them)?
Delivery and setup available?
Are they even needed?
Thank you.
