Connecting Independent Sales Reps and Manufacturers since 1947

MANA provides a well-balanced platform for both Manufacturers and Rep Agencies on how to best work together in a mutual effort to grow our businesses, collectively serve our customers better and improve all levels of service.

Simply put, MANA helps eliminate the “Us vs. Them” attitude between Manufacturers and Reps so we all are pulling on the same end of the rope.

MANA vs. for-profit rep-matchmaking sites

Non-profit MANA For-profit rep lists
MANA rep members pay annual dues. They are serious enough to invest in professionalism. Free “I am a rep, hire me” listings are available to anyone with an email address.
MANA files every year to maintain IRS-recognized 501(c)6 non-profit trade association status. Do your own due diligence to choose from all the different for-profit rep-search websites.
MANA is owned by its mfr. and rep members. Dues revenue goes to member benefits. Profits go to whoever put that website on the internet.
Non-profit means MANA focuses on our members’ profits, not our own. The focus of each of the many for-profit matchmaking sites will be different.
