“I like this format and in talking with venders, it seems that vendors feel this is a good way to communicate with all types of hardware dealers. I think this is the avenue for the future relationships. Please make my e-mail a part of your list.”

“The Hardware Connection looks quite interesting, especially to us at International who are remote from the vibrant U.S. hardware market. We will be reviewing this e-magazine and forwarding comments to you as we go.”

“Congratulations on the new endeavor. It is great, I read cover to cover the minute I received it.”

“Just starting to digest the magazine. Looks great. I like the inventory discussion. Just think how old we must be when a dry issue like inventory control makes good reading! I like the idea of covering the issues more completely than the normal trade coverage. Makes it a more valuable piece. I’ll pass the link around.”

“I think the magazine is great. I browsed through, printed the pages I wanted and it was easy to navigate. Looking forward to the next issue.”
Scott Nyquist – Store Manager

“I just received my issue of The Hardware Connection—absolutely outstanding!! The whole format is incredible—easy to read, easy to navigate, easy to the eyes—articles are excellent as well. We have a website but we do not do any e-commerce on it. I feel we are really missing out and your article on Social Media hits the nail right on the head!”
