damn this thread is like talking to my freakin kitchen table........... I dont want to rationalize why I would like to get in to selling some supplies nor do I need to hear another broke dick owner op tell what a mistake it would be, I am just looking for a manufacturer or wholesale distributer to get some of these products from to resell to a few clients. .....
Your local paper supply houses
Janitorial supply houses
Staples.com
those are 3 to start with, most of the commercial accounts of any sizable volume you will be dealing with are pretty savy when it comes to pricing so your margins are going to be tight to be competitive
You should be able to net at least $50 K off a work van annually ... to realize that kind of net in supply resale , you'll most likely need to sell close to a half million dollars of supplies...
and carry at least $50-100K of that in receivables any given month
You should listen more often to your kitchen table, cause as most guys experience , paper resale is not all that profitable
