(DALLAS, Texas) - The Service Roundtable, an Internet based contractor organization, announced the addition of a roundtable discussion group for HVAC contractors selling through Home Depot.

"Recently, I was wrestling with a question about participating in the Home Depot Trane program," said Pat Jackson of Jackson Comfort Systems, "I posted my question to the Service Roundtable's HVAC group. I was amazed at the number of creative ideas and 'what-to-watch-out-for' responses."

Jackson emailed Service Roundtable CEO Matt Michel to request a separate discussion group just for HVAC contractors selling through Home Depot. Michel's only question was if Jackson would be willing to moderate the group. When she agreed, the group was assembled.

Michel said, "Some contractors are wary of the big boxes, while others are generating hundreds of thousands of dollars of incremental business through them. If we can facilitate the efforts of the contractors who are selling through the big boxes to sell even more, we will certainly give it our best efforts."

The Service Roundtable does not take a position on contractor sales through retailers. "We simply try to be responsive to member needs and requests," says Michel, "Whether it's the creation of a software user group, the development of a specific marketing piece, or something like this."

The Service Roundtable's attitude is appreciated by its members. According to Pat Jackson, "All I can say is 'Wow!' The Service Roundtable has done it again by adding another valuable benefit. My job is to increase our sales volume and profitability, and the Service Roundtable gives me tremendous insight."

Serving the HVAC and plumbing industries, the Service Roundtable is world's largest and fastest growing private contractor group. Memberships are available for $50 on a monthly basis or less on an annual basis. For more information visit their website at www.serviceroundtable.com.
