The short answer is that there are no profitable systems unless you do volume or very large enterprise type jobs. Most of us squeak by living off of service work, new installs are few in this economy. I used to be an EC and know what you are driving at. For what it's going to cost you and the sales committment you will have to fulfill there is no way those "foot in the door" sales are going to work. You would be better off having a relationship with an established installer/dealer, that's what I do with a couple of ECs. You install the cable, he installs the system and is responsible for it. Win/win for both of you. -Hal CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNING: Some comments made by me are known to the State of California to cause irreversible brain damage and serious mental disorders leading to confinement.

Like Hal says, talk to an installer/dealer of a phone system that you are familiar with and work out a deal with him/her. Things are a bit tough, right now, so expect a few disappointments along the way. Good Luck. Rockford VoIP
