Prospecting never ends, it's the daily grind that we have a love hate relationship with. Some days are good while most are not that good, however if you continue prospecting you'll never find your pipeline dry or be on the unemployment line. Today I came up with an idea for crafting emails. Today I was prospecting very large clients via email. My idea worked! I love it when a plan comes together.

Re: The Next One
Considering Samsung's penchant for allowing other manufacturer's to relabel there product (Xerox & Muratec already relabel their A4) I'm curious as to whether Ricoh's A4 will be made by Samsung or Ricoh, particularly since Ricoh already relabels some Samsung printers. The other relabel option could be Lexmark because of the relationship they have w/ the Ricoh InfoPrint division. I love the new Lexmark A4 products offered to their BSD partners, by the way.

Konica Minolta does not have a "built-in" ability with our MFPs to tie directly into Alchemy. If they truly want that enhanced functionality, you would have to add on an external eCopy ScanStation, which does have an optional module to communicate directly with the Alchemy software. If they could get away with just basic scanning, all Konica Minolta MFPs can "talk" to Alchemy (or any other software requiring scanning) via the twain driver. This allows them to initiate the scan right from
