Re: How I turned $15 into a 24K Opportunity
Hey Art! I started using Aweber email software about 5 months ago. I send out a monthly newsletter with a customized template. People read it! Best part is that you always stay top of mind with your prospects. I actually exported my contact list from my CRM software and imported that into Aweber. Currently have about 100 prospects and customers in my email list. It's great! Much cheaper than a mailer.

Another thing all of these new machines including the 6502 and 8100 have is an insanely fast ADF, 120 sheets per minute or 240 images per minute duplex. Everyone that sees these comments how fast the ADF is.

I do, please place this question on the forums and I'm sure you'll have many response. First one I can think of is Time Payment (rates are skyhigh). I would also check out my friends at Lease Corporation of America.

This Week in the Copier Industry 10 Years Ago, The First Week in August 2008
A little of news this week is that the US Dollar is growing stronger vs the Japanese Yen. When this has happened in the past Japanese copier manufacturers have decreased pricing here in the States. When you couple this with the Chinese tariffs that may go into effect this week, it could mean that our industry may not see price increases. Japanese manufacturers might just bite the bullet on the increases in order to keep boxes moving out of the plants. BTW, the dude in the picture, had just a...

Canon C356iF-C256iF II Spec Check Review
It's not often that I'm intrigued by a competitors color MFP. It was two or three weeks ago when a prospect asked, "what do you know about the Canon C356iF?". Well, I was kind of embarrassed because I knew nothing about that Canon device. The only thing I could mutter out was that I would have to do some research and get back to them (not good). It's not like me to not know about my competitors devices, thus I started my quest to know as much as I can about the Canon C356iF. I'm not going to...

What Do You Do When You Need Competitive Copier Specs?
Years ago and I'm talking before the dawn of the internet. There were only a few ways you could get information on other manufacturers copiers. BI (before internet) 1) Call your competitor and ask to speak to a sales person and fib about who you are, your company, and give a BS call back number. We did this many times in order to get answers to those speed, feed and feature questions. In many cases we got snagged and had to hang up. 2) Another way was to get your significant other to do your...

On a recent presentation I gave in Texas, I was asked, "why focus on wide format?". My answer was simple, higher revenue, higher GP, DM is usually accessible, AEC market values IT, and I get the chances to sell them a copier somewhere down the road also. It's the two for one thing!

Copier Side by Side Comparisons "Do You Remember Those?"
Back in eighties, before PC's were on every copier sales persons desk, copier sales people would turn to Copier Buyers Guides.

The Transition of the Copier Industry Part 2
When digital copiers first arrived on the scene, we were ecstatic that copiers were now capable of network printing, network scanning, and faxing. In the early days of digital copiers the largest benefit to end users, was that if the copier jammed (and they all did) during a copy or print job you could clear the jam, then reset the system and the copier remembered what page was not copied or printed and you would be able to continue with the job. When this scenario happened with analog...

Those that had more "best" specs usually won the day and the sale. Do You Remember When? Back in...
