Re: Will outside Sales Rep's go away?
I’m a little late to this party but had the thread open since it was posted. As a 35 year old i straddle the “millennial” and old school gap (in my opinion haha). There is value of ordering things online that can be commonly used or even basic electronics. But if it’s anything above basic, I still believe talking to someone even if on the phone, pays dividends. We recently bought a new vehicle for my wife and explored for weeks online our options, the new vehicles options, what the price...

Re: Your Copiers Are Storing Confidential Information: What You Can Do About It
Question on this - do any of you that sell Lexmark get questioned about the ultimate ownership of the Chinese government? If so, what is it that you say to get them comfortable that they're safe?

Re: Your Copiers Are Storing Confidential Information: What You Can Do About It
We are still a dealer but we have not sold a LEXMARK in quite a while. They eliminated the MPS Elite program we were own, or at the least removed us from that program. I never had anyone ask about the security due to the Chinese ownership but it’s a great point. Honestly, I have found their support, to us at least, to be very subpar. Our support from brother has been phenomenal the last 2 years. Most of my printer clients are replacing the lexmarks with the brothers as fast as they can.

Re: Your Copiers Are Storing Confidential Information: What You Can Do About It
Taking a deeper dive, knowing that the U.S. DoD Inspector General recommends adding Lexmark to the banned list with Huawei (Lenovo and GoPro also), does that make you uncomfortable when pitching a Lexmark unit?

Re: Toshiba Introduces World's First Copier Delivering Erasable and Black & White Prints
Imagine a CMYK copier, except remove the CMY toner and developer and insert a new Erasable Blue (EB) toner and developer. Modify the copier so that when the Erasable blue toner passes back through the heat of the fuser, it de-colorizes the blue to white. A new rules based print driver can automatically makes software apps like emails auto print in blue plus provide a new counter to show how much paper, CO2 and money you saved. The previous generation product appealed to too small a section...

Re: UPDATE 3-Canon buys Dutch Oce for $1.1 bln, fights Ricoh
Found this on the web today:: By Pavel Alpeyev Nov. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Orbis Funds, the asset manager that opposed takeover offers by Warren Buffett and Citigroup Inc., rejected Canon Inc.’s 730 million euro ($1.1 billion) bid to buy unprofitable Dutch printer maker Oce NV as too low. Canon’s 8.60 euros-a-share offer “significantly undervalues” Oce’s assets, and Orbis doesn’t want to sell its stake of about 10 percent at that price, the Bermuda-based manager of $20 billion in assets said in a...

Re: Frustrated with Inventory Levels?
Very well done! We are a Ricoh, RISO dealer and this is very consistent with our practices in Pennsylvania. We can often over deliver and will do whatever is necessary to include some sort of a loaner, but the rep had better have a good reason and not make it a habit. Most customers are not unrealistic and if you have the relationship which is the key, 3 weeks or less should not cause problems. We happen to quote 7 to 10 business days as the norm, but we do have the benefit of a Ricoh...

Re: Printer or Copier technician needed for full time work - Carlsbad
What interesting is that this is an IT company looking for a copier/printer tech, just like many dealers making the move to IT, IT companies are looking to invade the copier service space. When I saw $20 an hour for New Mexico, I thought that was pretty good pay, but it seems the tech would be a contractor thus having to pay for medical, gas, tolls etc. Am I correct with this? Art

Re: Gifts, Trips, Prizes, for Copiers "Lawful or Could Land You in Jail?"
I think its a grey area. I've seen plenty of times where I've offered a TV or IPAD to someone and the owner tells the person who I worked with to keep it. Sometimes I have seen where the "company" keeps it....aka the owner takes it home with him.

Re: Gifts, Trips, Prizes, for Copiers "Lawful or Could Land You in Jail?"
But if a purchasing agent for a corporation takes that gift home, I'm thinking that agent could be in jeopardy of losing their job, right?

Re: Gifts, Trips, Prizes, for Copiers "Lawful or Could Land You in Jail?"
I would say so in a government situation l, absolutely, but I doubt much stink is made in private corporate business. I’ve seen it play out so many different ways I think it’s situational with each company.

Re: Gifts, Trips, Prizes, for Copiers "Lawful or Could Land You in Jail?"
Yes you are correct. The blinders go on when something is “given” to them. I’d be lying if i said I didn’t do it but the customer and everyone involved knows it’s there and listed on the proposal the whole time. I use it strategically with accounts I want and switch back and forth with things to keep competitors on their toes. Sometimes it’s a tv, sometimes it’s An iPad, sometimes it’s football tickets l, gift cards etc. it’s never the same for a particular machine or vertical market.

Re: Gifts, Trips, Prizes, for Copiers "Lawful or Could Land You in Jail?"
If its out in the open and done as a promotion as mentioned above as being part of the proposal there is no problem. If its done in the dark by the sales rep or if the customer demands a kick pack as a condition of doing business there is a serious problem.

Re: Gifts, Trips, Prizes, for Copiers "Lawful or Could Land You in Jail?"
But that gift should go the company or the owner of the company, not an employee of the company, correct?
