Attention Sales Leaders... What Type Of Experience Are Your Sales Reps Providing?
Quite often, we hear, toss around and intermix the word 'customer' and 'client',” but what exactly does it mean? When it comes to the experience they receive the same can be said.

This Week in the Copier Industry 15 Years Ago, The Second Week in September 2003
Haha! Something pretty funny in with one of the links below. "Moving closer to the paperless office". This was fifteen years ago. Do you remember the Ricoh C1224? Was a color MFP that had a speed of 12 pages per minute in color and 24 pages per minute in black. Needless to say that Ricoh never informed sales that the copier would go into auto calibrate during a print or copy run for up to minutes! Relive that experience with the threads below Enjoy the threads from 15 years ago this week.
