Determine which front screen projection televisions you want to add to your inventory

Technically, front screen projection televisions just need the actual projector. But, as the projection televisions provider, it is important to note that the picture is much clearer with the accompanying screen. Front projectors can be mounted on the ceiling or placed on a coffee table, depending on your customer's intent.

I recommend: The Projector Pros have several projection choices at discount prices. It also carries projection screens and accessories along with helpful projection televisions information if you are looking for some guidance. Projector People has by far the most extensive projection televisions list you will find. It carries projectors and their accessories for every budget.

Offer rear projection televisions to your customers

If your customers are looking to find projection televisions that have a large picture and good quality but they don't plan on mounting it on a wall, rear projection televisions are going to be what they are looking for. Keep in mind, however, that even though many owners of rear projection televisions do not plan on mounting them on a wall, if that is an offered feature, it is a strong selling point.

I recommend: OneCall carries several rear projection televisions to choose from, many that include free shipping. TVsDepot also offers a variety of rear projection televisions that you can stock for your customers.

Be sure to have all the parts for projection televisions

Beside having the actual projector and/or screen, it is important to carry the pieces that go with a projection TV; think bulbs and mounts. Consider stands and other furniture as well for rear projection televisions. Anything that will help create the theater viewing that your customer is ultimately looking for is what you should carry on your shelves.

I recommend: DTVCity has many accessories that will go with a variety of different televisions. Relampit offers a unique and environmentally friendly service for recycling your old projection lamps. You can purchase and recycle right from its website. As the company says, "It's the smart choice for your wallet and our world."
