Thomas

Thomas is positioned as the largest and most used industrial reference resource in the world.  We connect decision-makers with industrial sellers through the following Internet, CD-ROM/DVD and Print media! 

• ThomasNet.com, the largest and most used industries-leading online destination industrial reference resource.  Go to http://www.thomasnet.com/ and pretend that you are a buyer for your products/services.

• The Thomas National and Regional DVD’s/CD-ROM’s and Print Directories; no other company can put you in front of the users of these market shares that are distributed only to industrial decision-makers and by request only.  Our Regional publications are growing in our requested circulation, which is only distributed to decision-makers.  Many users of the print tell us that it is faster and easier to grab and compare side by side local businesses in these one volume books than to log on and search online.    

Coming Soon:  Click here to view the circulation statistics and coverage area for each target area that you have the ability to supply to.  (BOL… this link needs to go to a page that has a map of the U.S. with the geographic state coverage page I created and a map of the U.S. showing areas – the states should have a box that they can click on that will add this information to the contact us information--- please talk to me about this for it is important).

Thomas’s internet and offline infrastructure is already set up.   You can’t get a more targeted marketing campaign, for you are able to tap into our existing market share with pinpoint keyword and geographic positioning for your exact supplying capabilities in the areas that have proven traffic. 

We also help convert traffic through content management tools for online catalogs and CAD Drawing solutions. 

• Catalog Navigator, an online product catalog that is parametrically searchable for visitors and that is search engine friendly.  If you have a catalog it should be online with advanced search functionality.  Visit http://www.catalognavigator.com/.
• CAD Solutions enable detailed product searching and configurations on the fly, with simple, direct insertion capabilities:  
  • PartSpec – is used to find mechanical and electrical parts
  • PlantSpec – is used to select plant-design components and systems
  • CADBlocks – is used to find architectural and building products”

The CAD products can be coupled with the Catalog Navigator solution.  This will enable users to navigate by product, technical attributes, material, trade names and other criteria.  The products that match a search can be compared side by side.  Visit http://www.cadregister.com/.
