Re: Will outside Sales Rep's go away?
Monte I don't believe you are paranoid! The ecommerce is a real threat for sales peeps. In order to over come that we as sales peeps will need to wear additional hats to better serve out clients. Those as a trusted adviser, become more knowledgeable with cloud services, IT services, MSP, MSSP. It's my belief that we will evolve from just print to be able to consult on all aspects of business office. I would love to hear from others on this as well, this is a great subject for discussion.

Re: MPS and Linux HELP!
So some clarification first. PaperCut absolutely does support Mac. In fact, it is the only cost recovery/print control solution that I know of that actually installs in an all Mac environment. (Server and Client) It also is the only solution I know of that installs in a Linux environment. So both of your issues are solved with PaperCut. I included the install guides for Mac and Linux to get you started.

Re: Cloud Printing
I just had a customer ask me more about collaborating files, he's sick and tired of zipping files and the emailing back and forth and can't keep track of the revisions to the documents.

24dude: A proposal written on in a "word" document or a piece of paper is worthless. Have the customer get everything in writing on a sales contract and or lease. Once you read the fine print, you will see that there are safe guards that are put in place for toner yields on cost per page, along additional money to connect additional pc's and in my area they have a fuel surcharge.

Re: Feature Article for February "BuyerZone.com Friend or Foe"?
Let's not lose track of Jason's statement that most salesreps do not consult and customer's don't know who they are going to get from a dealership. We are all in agreement (including Jason) that the consultative approach is best but we are a minority in our business. Most reps do not, can not and will not do what it takes to be a specialist worthy of extra compensation.

Re: Canon unveils "hybrid" color printers
What's "hybrid" about them? What am I missing. I sold Canon and Ricoh MFP's for quite a while and this seems like just natural replacements for previous EOL systems. Granted, I don't actively sell in this space at the moment, but because I consult inside the industry, I try to at least keep a birds-eye view of the tech. Can someone answer for me, please? Thanks!

Re: here's an idea for DMS
so, here's my thought, with SaaS document management software becoming more the norm. I've seen many customers back away from DMS due to lack of knowledge, lack of talent, lack of funds and lack of desire to have someone in the office to manage the program. Most smaller companies do not have an IT staff so they outsource. Why not rent the SaaS DMS software to the customer on yearly basis and then manage the uploads of scanned documents for them? We can consult on the indexing scheme, the...

Re: Gifts & Prizes?
Caveat - Consult your tax advisor. But if I "won" one but had to buy it myself and funds were included in my "wages" (thus taxed on W-2)it would automatically become an employee business expense (IRS form 2106) since it was not provided by my employer. I am not a tax advisor but in 32 years selling I've never been questioned by IRS.
