How many companies will be listed on this platform?

add

Our hope is that we will have a huge number of members ranging from General Contractors, Architects, Engineers, Trades and product/service suppliers of all types from across Canada. We're reaching out to all these groups to make this a valuable marketplace for all commercial builders.

What is the maximum amount of products that a Supplier can load onto this site?

add

As yet we have not found any limits to the number of products a supplier can list.

How will contractors contact our us if they are interested in our products?

add

When a contractor has done a search for and found your products, they can click on our 'Send Request' icon and an email will go directly to your sales people showing the contractor name and details of their request. From there, you respond directly to them. Also, the request is tracked in our Requests tab where you can make sure all requests have been followed up.

As a distributor, how do we get our products into your marketplace?

add

We have the ability to import your products from an excel spreadsheet or a pdf of your catalogue. Once your products have been added to the marketplace, you can add more, make changes or delete them on your own. Also, you can add more pictures of your products as needed.

What is the cost of membership?

add

This will vary based on number of products and size of the company. For now, we're trying to keep our prices lower than what you would pay for google ad words. Give us a call and we can give you a demonstration and provide a clear picture of pricing.

Why would I search for products and services with your marketplace instead of just using google?

add

We hear this question alot. Google has become quite cluttered with ads, AI responses and suppliers paying their way up the results list. With our marketplace, you can search for the products and services you need and see results in geographic proximity to your office or project. Also, you can save your searches for future use and track your requests to suppliers to make sure they are followed up. Another benefit people have found is that all our search results screens look exactly the same, like you're looking in one catalog for everything, which makes it much easier to find exactly what you're looking for.
