Independent Distributors Can Now List In-Stock Inventory on OEMsecrets.com

For two years, OEMsecrets have only approved franchised distributors to list inventory on the website. After building up one of the largest online databases for electronics professionals to find and buy parts online from franchised distributors, OEMsecrets removed the log in and made the site 100% FREE for anyone to use.

OEMsecrets' focus is on creating greater value for buyers and engineers alike. Their team surveyed the 3500 OEMs who had previously signed up for membership on the website enquiring about independent distributors and approximately 95% of respondents stated that they would like to see independent distributors listing in-stock inventory on the website.

Following the overwhelming response, OEMsecrets made the decision to transform their business model and welcome independent distributors onto the website to post their inventory. For further exposure, OEMsecrets have also split the search results screen so it displays both the franchised and non-franchised distributors inventory separately. There are no distributors in China listed on the website and all inventory is in-stock only in attempt to solve the counterfeit epidemic in the supply chain.

Buyers and engineers now expect a certain level of online service such with the shopping cart links and online buying facilities from franchised distributors. However, independent distributors are swiftly adapting to change, with more and more emerging with e-commerce facilities on their sites. This is highlighted by independent distributors such as TME showing shopping carts on OEMsecrets. Independent distributors with the stock actually on their shelves offer just as much value as franchised distributors as they are transforming the sales strategies to an online focus.

Furthermore, after finding the required parts, the buyer then has the capability of searching for the price needed to secure the order.

OEMsecrets have listened to the major distributors and thousands of buyers from large OEM's across the globe, and have developed a price comparison website where users can see millions of lines of inventory from all the major distributors with up to date stock levels and pricing. OEMsecrets are still developing the site further so the user will eventually be able to tailor the site to suit their specific requirements.

OEM Secrets spells the end of “Dead End Sourcing"

OEM Secrets spells the end of “Dead End Sourcing”

We have all done it. We search for a part number on a component sourcing website and nothing comes up. 

Infact on a number of occasions, many buyers will re-enter the part number just incase there was a mistake / typo. 

OEM Secrets have created a service behind the service whereby when the dreaded “No Results Found” message comes up, there is now a further option. 

Oem Secrets have been working in partnership with many independent distributors over the last few years that offer a wider database of sourcing capabilities. 

Each distributor has a unique line card. The OEM Secrets team will match any enquiry up with a supplier that specializes in sourcing that particular manufacturer. 

With a simple 6 box form and the click of a button you can be contacted with a quote by a approved supplier from the OEM Secrets team. 

This ensures that all obsolete and hard to find electronic component requirements can now be catered for. 

This is typical of a forward thinking website that is owned and run by individuals that have actually sourced electronic components themselves and know the pit falls and frustrations of a parts search engine returning zero results.

Visit www.oemsecrets.com today to source all of your active, passive, obsolete and electromechanical electronic component requirements.
