Why become a Phantom Screens Dealer?

There are many reasons why you would choose to become a Phantom Screens Dealer.

Maybe you want to diversify your business by adding retractable screens to a wider portfolio of products. Or you’ve seen retractable screens by Phantom installed on a home and know your customers would love them too. Perhaps you’ve installed Phantom’s screens on a project and believe you could market them to others.

Whatever the reason, there’s never been a better time to become an Authorized Dealer for Phantom Screens. It’s a great opportunity to work with North America’s leading brand of retractable screens.

A Dealer Success Story Ric Ross of Mr. Go-Glass became a Phantom Screens Dealer in 1998. Based in Lewes, Delaware, Ric already had a successful glass and awning business when he found Phantom Screens while looking for a screening solution for double-French doors. Becoming a Phantom Screens Dealer has allowed the company to add value to its suite of screening products resulting in a 20% increase to the screen segment of the business.

Commenting on his success, Ric said: “Quality has always been at the core of our business. We look for products with rock solid quality, because we always

Beyond the great business relationships, the enhanced support network and top quality products, becoming a Phantom Screens Dealer is a real opportunity to grow your business and make more money.

Phantom Screens has a simple business structure. The company works with independently owned businesses in each sales region through an authorized reseller structure.

The economy has changed drastically over recent years. More and more homeowners are choosing to improve and not move – leading to a growing trend for remodeling and home improvement. Retractable screens are perfect products for both retrofit and new construction projects, enabling you to capitalize on market trends and sell products which add value to your project, deliver real benefits to your customers and generate income for your business.

Each sales territory consists of a distributorship with exclusive rights to select product lines.

The Distributors establish their own network of Authorized Dealers or sell directly to homeowners, custom builders, remodeling contractors and other residential professionals.

Authorized Distributors are responsible for ensuring that all customers in their territory receive consultation, installation and service support either directly or through their network of Dealers.

Installing Dealers

The relationship is based on the sale and installation of products from Phantom Screens.

What an installing Dealer does: • purchases the product from the Authorized Distributor • sells the product and collects payment from the end consumer • installs and repairs the product for the consumer • handles all support and customer service calls

Becoming a Phantom Screens Dealer is a win-win situation. You can diversify your product portfolio and extend your offering to clients, as well as join a growing company in a market which is ready for you to capitalize on.

Phantom Screens and its Authorized Distributors offer great support to their Dealers – from product and technical support to sales, marketing and customer service. They give you all the tools you need to sell Phantom Screens.

stand completely behind what we sell. It’s that passion for quality which defines who we are and Phantom’s products fit perfectly with this uncompromising service mentality.

Non installing Dealers

A non-installing Dealer displays and sells the product but doesn’t offer installation.

What a non-installing Dealer does: • sells the product and collects payment from the end consumer • forwards the confirmed sale to the Distributor • requires the Distributor to perform all installs and repairs • handles all customer service calls

It’s funny but often when we install a Phantom screen in a neighborhood, word gets around, and all the neighbors want one too. You really can’t put a value on this kind of word of mouth advertising! We also created a buzz and generated business when we posted a video of an Executive motorized screen by Phantom on our Facebook page. Never mind a picture being worth a thousand words – you should have seen the response to the video!

Being a Dealer for Phantom Screens allows us to tailor a solution for each customer’s needs. And often, once we install the Phantom product, the customer allows us to help them with other glass, mirror, or screening needs.

It’s really a win-win situation for us and our customers.”
