New Wholesaler - Help!

[tradeaid]

Hi guys,I have recently setup on my own after many years in the Electrical Wholesale game! I am beginning to get my website together at and I would be very grateful for any feedback you may have both positive and negative.I am currently in the process of sourcing suppliers and adding products to the website daily, but if anyone has any suggestion of either products they struggle to get hold of or must stock lines, please let me know.

cant find your street address...... generally feel more comfortable buying online when I know the street address. Website looks good though,

Hi Sintra,

Thanks for letting me know. I got a bit excited trying to get going and should of read the forum rules. I will speak with Dan regards sponsorship.

Zubz, thanks for the reply I have now made the alteration.

3 biggest things to do with internet sales are:
1. Price Price Price, you have got to be competative with your pricing.
2. Avalability, how can you offer cheap fast shipping.
3. Google is your friend, get yourself onto the first page.

The site looks very good, it is easy to navigate and find what you need. You need to put products in peoples faces, dont make them scroll down to find your special offers, have it right there not only on the first page but on the first screen people see. PM me the link again, and what I should google to find your site on the first page(that way you are not advertising and I can have another look at it for you)

I really can't be bothered with internet sourcing unless I absolutely have too - I stay reasonably loyal to my local "big chain" trade distributor and my local "family independent" distributor. In return they give out my cards to customers.
