Business software resellers
You sell or support the software distributors use to run their business. Add online ordering without building a new system.
VendorX gives each electrical distributor its own branded online store, where customers get quotes and place orders. Before a quote goes out, it checks each price against the distributor’s own rules. Prices below cost are blocked; prices outside the limits are sent to a manager for approval, and the decision is recorded. Technology partners sell and set up VendorX under their own brand.

Orders
Who VendorX is for
You sell or support the software distributors use to run their business. Add online ordering without building a new system.
You help electrical distributors choose and set up technology. VendorX gives you an ordering system with price checks and approvals already built in.
If your agency already works with electrical distributors, add a branded ordering site without building the system from scratch.
A price can change between the first quote, an approval, and the final invoice. When those steps happen in different places, mistakes are hard to find.
DISTRIBUTOR TEAM
One place for the people handling the sale
Price rules run in the background
Sales creates the quote. Some low prices and large discounts can be sent for approval. Prices that the distributor does not allow are blocked. Accounting can see the final order. VendorX records the quote, the approval decision, and the final order.
Quote
Before the quote is sent
Each distributor sets product costs, the lowest allowed margin, and the largest allowed discount. VendorX checks the price against those rules before the quote is sent.
Approval
Record the reason and the decision
The person asking for approval selects a reason, such as a competitor price or a large order. VendorX records the reason, who decided, and when.
Order
Link the quote, approval, and order
VendorX links the final quote, approval decision, and order. A later check can show whether a record changed or whether part of the history no longer connects correctly.
Payment
Track card, check, and wire payments
VendorX records Stripe card payments and manual check or wire payments with the order. This keeps the payment and order details together.
ACCOUNTING SYSTEM
Test a limited QuickBooks Online connection
Limited setup and testing only
VendorX has an early QuickBooks Online connection for limited setup and testing. It is not ready for normal client use.
Your client stays your client
VendorX does not bring buyers or list sellers. Its standard partner pricing uses subscriptions, not a percentage of each sale.
Your client keeps its business system
VendorX adds online ordering and price checks. It does not replace the software that runs the business.
One product, set up for each client
Set the logo, colors, web address, catalog, pricing rules, and approvals. VendorX does not build separate software for each client.
Stripe card payments are ready now. The QuickBooks Online connection is limited to setup and testing. It is not ready for normal client use.
How it works
Add the client’s logo, colors, web address, and sample products.
Set the lowest profit margin and the largest allowed discount. Prices below cost are blocked. Other prices outside those limits require approval.
A standard test uses sample data and 3 to 5 users. When a partner certified by VendorX leads the work, the goal is to place the first test order within 2 to 4 weeks. This is only a planning target. It is not a promise that the full client site will be ready in 2 to 4 weeks.

Why VendorX
Without VendorX, teams may use email, spreadsheets, and separate software to manage quotes and price approvals. VendorX keeps those steps with the order.

VendorX
Technology partners that serve electrical distributors
VendorX puts price checks and approvals in the same system as the quote and order.
This table compares common ways teams handle orders. Each product and setup is different.
VendorX was built side by side with an electrical distributor. VendorX’s founder owned that business at the time and no longer owns it today. That work shaped the product. It is not proof from an outside customer.
The problem we saw
Orders arrived by phone and email. Price approvals were hard to follow.
What VendorX does
VendorX keeps each quote, approval decision, and final order together so the team can follow what happened.
Partner pricing
You pay a yearly partner fee. After a client site goes live, you also pay VendorX a monthly charge for that client. You choose what to charge the client within the partner program’s pricing rules. VendorX does not take a cut of client sales. The difference between the client price and the monthly VendorX charge is not your profit. You still have to cover the yearly partner fee and your own costs. Your agreement says which active client subscriptions, usage, and approved extra services you must pay for. You do not send monthly sales reports.

Founder & CEO
When I worked in electrical distribution, I saw how easily a price could change between a quote and the final order. I built VendorX to check quote prices against the distributor’s rules. It blocks prices below cost, sends above-cost prices outside the limits for approval, and keeps a record of the decision.
Meet the founderSecurity
VendorX keeps each client’s records separate. It checks the client account in the app and again in the database. Each person can see and do only what their assigned role allows.
VendorX checks the client account before it reads or changes any records. The app checks first, and the database checks again. The database allows access only to that client’s records.
Questions
VendorX is an online ordering system for electrical distributors. It checks quote prices, handles approvals, records orders, and takes card payments through Stripe.
Technology partners sell and support VendorX under their own brand. Electrical distributors use it to take orders from their customers.
VendorX blocks any price below cost. If a price is above cost but falls below the allowed margin or goes over the allowed discount, VendorX sends it for approval and keeps a record of the decision.
No. QuickBooks Online remains the accounting system. VendorX has an early QuickBooks Online connection for limited setup and testing. It is not ready for normal client use, and it does not keep product details updated in QuickBooks Online.
Starter costs $15,000 a year. Growth costs $25,000 a year. You also pay VendorX each month for each client subscription after the client site goes live. You choose what to charge each client, within the program’s pricing rules. VendorX does not take a cut of the client’s sales. What is left after the monthly VendorX charge is not your profit. You still have to pay the yearly partner fee and your own costs.
A standard test starts with sample data and 3 to 5 users. When a partner certified by VendorX leads the work, the goal is to place the first test order within 2 to 4 weeks. That does not mean the full client site will be ready in 2 to 4 weeks.
