Ty Larry. Are you going to BTA National event in NYC next month?

I do get occasional competition from Amazon, mostly on A4 product, so great story and advice on how to deal with clients. I buy stuff from Amazon so it never hurts to check their offerings.

I'm not sure what the title of this blog will be at this time, and as I get deeper into the story I may come up with it as I write. About eight months ago I received a lead from my service department about and old Ricoh 1035 that was still in the field. We didn't sell the device new, but somehow ended up as the service provider for a small law firm. No maintenance/supply agreement, just service and bill as needed. For six months I got not where with phone calls, was never able to get to...
