57 Days of Selling Copiers "Day 4"

Art Post ·
What a night it was last night. The Giants vs the Packers or Trump vs Clinton, after watching 15 minutes of the Giant vs the Packers I switched to Trump vs Clinton. I tell you, Trump vs Clinton was a whole heck of a lot more entertaining than the Giants game! Arrggg, Monday mornings, I hate em, you hate em, we all hate them. I think I finally feel asleep some where around mid-night, thus I had a hard time getting this old bag o bones moving in the AM. I had a 9AM appointment with an existing...

In Sales? Time To Get Your Swagger On By James Hills, Oct 20, 2016 9:59:57 AM Who has swagger? Johnny Depp, Muhammad Ali, Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump? They all do of course. In fact you could say that almost every successful person has it. When you pause to think about it, however, “Swagger” is a somewhat indefinable characteristic. Google defines it as “To behave in a very confident and typically arrogant or aggressive way”. I agree with that, but it’s important to recognize how people’s...

USA vs China Tariffs for MFPs

Art Post ·
When most of us retired last night the news was telling us that President Trump had rolled back the tariffs to December 15th and that certain products would be removed from that list for health, safety and national security concerns. I too thought that meant that copiers/MFP's was pushed back to the 15th of December because the news made mention about other tech items such as phones, laptops, tablets. I needed to dig into this a little more today. Below is the press release from USTR that...

I think all print/copy devices/parts/ toner originating from China were subject to a 10% tariffs in the first round of tariffs back in Oct 2018. That escalated to 25% tariff in May 2019. The threatened Sept 01,10% tariffs are on consumer goods ranging from shoes to clothes to TVs and consumer electronics. Manufacturers stocked USA warehouses heavy prior to Oct 01 2018 to avoid paying tariffs in the hopes that the Trump tariff war would be quickly resolved. That obviously has not happened nor...

These moves are in response to new Chinese countermeasures...
