Re: 8 Talking Points for Selecting an Imaging/Copier Vendor
Art Some very good points here, for both a buyer and seller. So often a seller is focused on one aspect of the deal with others being and economic time bomb. I think offering the professional "bowing out" of a price deal is necessary to consider, as just when you think prices couldn't get lower, they do. Taking an approach towards a true, mutually beneficial deal will either get appreciated, or get your on your way towards finding one.

Xerox AltaLink and VersaLink Back-End Promos?
Hey all, we've seen a large increase unit sales for Xerox AltaLink and VersaLink lines in Q2 (both vs. last year and the previous quarter). I'm trying to figure out why this growth is happening. I know that Xerox consistently offers promos and instant savings offers for the open channel models, but I'm wondering if they are offering dealers any incentives to move more units? Are there back-end promos or instant savings offers that have been running this year?
