If you’re in an industry that uses two-way radio equipment and accessories, it may be difficult to know where to buy from: direct from the supplier, or through a third-party dealer.
Here, we’ll discuss some of the key benefits of buying your two-way radio equipment through a third-party supplier.
Manufacturers, like Impact, are only part of the solution. We offer radio accessories and radio battery chargers, but we don’t manufacture or sell the radios, systems, infrastructure, batteries, and so on.
Typically, two-way radio dealers offer all of these products and oftentimes from multiple manufacturers from Motorola, Kenwood, Icom and beyond – so buying radios and accessories through a dealer gives the end-user a much bigger selection to choose from.
Along with more choice, you will typically get a higher level of after-sale service for all of your two-way radio needs through a dealer. Dealers receive training from all product suppliers and have the best all-around knowledge of the industry, its products, and the user’s needs.
Impact’s expertise solely focuses on radio accessories and chargers.
Dealers tend to have sales reps on the ground, available for in-person meetings and on-site consultations. This is ideal for those who are looking for more personalized support throughout the buying process. Many dealers have bricks and mortar stores that you can stop in, touch the product and get immediate answers to your questions.
Buying direct from suppliers is generally done over phone, email, and web so the overall experience can be less personal in nature.
In some cases, dealer pricing can be more attractive, especially if the user is buying various radios, accessories and chargers. Some dealers sell a multitude of products so the end-user may benefit from bundled packages that can bring the total cost down.
In comparison, if users buy all radio products and accessories from various product suppliers, costs could be higher and the user will need to contact multiple companies for technical support.
When you buy from local dealers, you’re supporting local business. While BearCom and MCA are some of the largest and most widespread dealers out there, many dealers are small mom and pop, family-run businesses that could use your support.
If your dealer doesn’t already carry the two-way radio brand or equipment you prefer, you can always ask them to get those products in stock. Many dealers will be happy to oblige and keep their customers satisfied.
