What's up with the new Manufacturer Section

[Warpath]

I am sure you are wondering what I am doing with this new addition.

Well during a recent discussion I found myself replying with a canned answer I have produced with some old information.

So I am going to invite representatives of those companies to come on the site and provide information about their respective companies. Everything from company news, product info, marketing info, and any other detail about their product. It will also be a place for respective owners of those products to post updates, opinions, and any detail. And finally potential customers of those products to ask questions.

I am looking to get more real info going versus just speculation.

Exactly what a researching potential buyer needs for a big purchase like this:
Accurate information.

Warpath:....How are you going to deal with the unhappy opinionated owner.....the one that is going to use the information against the company/individual-in lets say court or the public opinion arena?.......Is this going to be one of those [moderated=neutered] discussion boards or are things going to be of a give and take nature without the threat of being barred from diacussion-which has happened on many many many discussion boards......geof kaye

[Warpath]

I don't care if you as a manufacturer build the most perfect product, there is always going to be unhappy customers.

Companies that address issues and work with customers are always going to be better off. Some customers will never be happy, and many times if those people post information you can read into that by the way they present their problems.

To be honest, I think the smaller companies might post information. The bigger guys either won't understand what benefit a opportunity like this will offer or don't care. I hope I am wrong.

Even thought we only have 430 members, there are just under 10,000 visitors to the site each month. The potential advertising benefit is huge and all for free. And hopefully we get good information and content out of it.

Did I hear free? Did I ever mention that I am a very frugal German? I am in the process of finishing my condo slideout? Yes, I now am able to put a queensize aircoil bed in a conventional 72" sleeper? Would you like to see the pics?

Is this the kind of thing you are talking about Bill?

[Warpath]

Exactly what I am talking about. Randy be sure to put your info in your forum when your ready to release the details.

BTW: That is very cool, I would think that would be a hit in the toter and trucking industry.

Regarding the listed Conversion Manufacturers:

Isn't there also a Pro-Line Truck conversion company in Missouri?

Also, note that there is a Powerhouse Conversion company and a Powerhouse Coach company that are separate and distinct. I think they both began about the same time and picked very similar names coincidentally.
