Four Sales Tips to Help you Close More Copier Opportunities

Art Post ·
Recently, closed quite a few orders in the last couple of weeks. Almost all of those opportunities had some stiff competition from other vendors. Thus, I'd like to share some of my secrets that I've used to help win the deal. But first I'd like to share some thoughts about buyers. There's two types of buyers in my book. One is the value buyer and the other is the price buyer. If you've been on Linkedin long enough you'll read sales guru's spinning the yarns of selling to value. The truth is...

Speeds and Feeds of Copiers

I had a lot of wind shield time today and it got me thinking about the recent thread that Kyocera was moving with speed licensing for some of their MFP models.

Please keep us informed when the new models arrive! Thank you!

Currently the new model with speed licensing is the Taskalfa 2554ci 25ppm color that with an additional license can be bumped to a 3554ci with no additional hardware.

Once a machine is registered at a certain speed you can't go back. So you can't upgrade a 25ppm to a 35 if a customer changes their mind down the road. Let me know if you have any...
