I recived an email this morning from one of my suppliers looking to have a 160' x 14' wall mural installed at a local facility. They do wholesale but are now doing retail as well. We are now competing with a supplier for work. If you go to their website they say they are wholesale. NOT! the supplier that will soon be competing with you is www.zeronine.com
I have another supplier that sells me all my digital vinyl that claims to be strickly wholesale, has salesmen scouting the midwest for retail work. If interested you need to contact me as the only proof I have is from the salesman himself. How do we compete with these companys when they obviously purchase material far less than us and at the same time we are supporting them with our purchases? I am pulling all my business from this supplier.
Am I crazy to think that suppliers supply and sign shops sell?
