Our main line is Stihl with the pro market being about 4 % of the sales. Homeowner makes up the rest. The other lines are geared toward industry, boat building, construction, etc.

Stihl products are 30% of our inventory but make 50% of our income.

Looking for something in the $150- $300 range that would move every day, that anyone would buy.

Looking for something that does not require a large staff to manage. We find that our current staff of 3 fits well with the products we sell now. When we were into rentals and Toro we were up to a staff of 11. Extra mechanics, trucks, etc. Generated alot of income, but also alot of expence.

The town we are in has a population of approx 7,000. We draw people from approx 1 1/2 hours away so that would cover another 10-12,000 people.
