Do any Australian users have success with

[deroguy]

Hi all

Just a quick question. I have looked at some of the big I.T distributors in Australia such as Tech Pacific and Cellnet thinking about apply for an account. But they all want to know about existing suppliers and capital invested etc. Which at this stage I have neither. As a start up company have any of you had success in this situation.

 

P.S Although the smaller distributors seem easier to get an account with their prices are just not competitive

 

Thanks for the advise

I can only suggest that you tell them exactly that, if you have ABN and are legit, they will give you an account. Generally there will be no credit facility and payment is up front. After a successful history with them as for 7 days or whatever.

 

I guess it costs them time and $$ to setup an account they want to see some return from their effort as well.
