The IT Network is boosting the "Where to Buy" facility on its Web site. Punters are currently faced with a long list of suppliers when they have chosen the product they want to buy. From next month the choices will be categorised into direct-selling vendors and authorised resellers. Customers will also be able to choose from five online resellers - E-Exchange, ace-quote.com, Hyporium Online, Action Online and Dabs Direct Online. The company - part of InterX group - will get around two per cent of these Internet sales. Alternatively, customers will be able to link directly into their preferred suppliers or into the IT Network reseller database. The service, announced today, will be available from mid-February. IT Network now has 135,000 registered individuals from 75,000 different companies. ®
