I missed the important part of this question..
The twist is when we sell to distributors we aren't allowed to sell directly to consumers. It would completely undermine the distributor - dealer chain.
I posted this thread to make those that are interested, aware that there are great opportunities in hooking up with small/medium size manufacturers.
Google some common products and start at page 6.. The mission is to find those companies on page 6 and worse, then email or call their sales department and ask them if they would mind if you sold their products... select a great domain name IE: generatorsunlimited.com build a pro site and use your experience and knowledge to get your portal to page one. You will be surprised at how receptive small companies will be to you selling more of their products for them.
I appreciate all the PM's. My company currently has good online presence with some savvy people. For now we aren't looking to give those people any competition. When we finish our current round of expansion we will have some new products to market. I will post another thread at that time and speak with you that are interested in setting up a store.
