Question on Startup business

Hello Experts,

I am exploring opportunity to develop a business plan as IT Consultant but I am not sure how to go about doing this. I have a website but no products yet. I want to start selecting products I can support and do consultations on. I don't have huge capital and I want to start small. Most of the vendors I checked offer reseller opportunity and I just want to know if that is a good thing and how will I benefit from type of relationship.

I was also checking Cisco as a reseller but on their website link they indicated to select a preferred distributor. I need an expert opinion.

I am based in Canada but I will check Intermedia offers for resellers in Canada.

How do you handle ordered with Ingram Micro? Do they ship directly to the customer ?

Thank you for all the information you provided.

I am in Canada and I use them all the time for alot of my clients. They provide to Canada aswell, you just have to ensure they set you up with a canadian account.

Thank you John and Rob.

I have good feeling and I would like to do something similar to what you are doing. I am good in Networking in upgrading switches, routers, VMware, deploying wireless controllers and access points.

Thank you.

John

I find more work with computers, software and people than with Networking. Why? Once networking is in place it is good for at least a little while. So you would need more clients to fill your day.
