There's a cool thread I did years ago about the history of the fax. We sold tons of faxes in the eighties and had a lot of fun doing it.

I arrived back in town from Aruba late on Monday. Yup, I took a vacation and rarely accessed the internet! Yay for me. To say the least I came back to state that is in pure panic mode with corona virus. Tuesday was not so bad as four opportunities went HOT.

This Week in the Copier Industry 10 Years Ago for the First Week of May 2010
Years ago I use to burn the late night candle pretty often. In some cases I would still find myself emailing a prospect at 2AM in the morning. In most cases the email was to schedule a meeting for later that week. Those late night emails was just something I was use to. It wasn't until one of my clients made mention of the email that arrived at 2AM. Of course he didn't see it until he arrived at work. But this client went on to tell me that he wished he had more sales people like me, meaning...

Back in 2005 I was just 2 years into having a real web site for the copier industry. I started back in 2000 with an message forum with MSN communities.

Re: OCR
My experience with Ecopy desktop has been that it's pretty good for markups, (However matching fonts, etc... is tricky) but taking a document and importing it into Word leaves a little to be desired. I'm looking at Omnipage 17 and ABBYY FineReader. Does anyone have a magic bullet for scanning a document and opening it in Word and having it maintain layout and being editable? I know, I'm not asking for much

Re: Telemarketing trainers
I really think all those strategies are going to have a success rate below 5%. Think about this, it's success depends upon the person you are meeting with being dumb enough to fall for it, but in order to get the job of a controller or IT manager - those kind of people wouldn't have ever landed the job. Even if you pressured enough to get that appointment and following meetings, the management of that company would recognize the short commings of that person and put a control process in...

Re: Rendering paper question w/Markers
I'm mostly unsure what you are asking here. I think the phrase "user markers for rendering" is my main problem, can you restate? Are you asking if the customer can draw on the paper with magic markers? If so, then 20lb bond is fine, as long as your marker doesn't put down too much ink. If the marker is very wet, then it will either bleed or run on just about any paper stock.

Re: NESTLE'S ACCOUNT
it is definitley worth the try. I am using HP Laser Jet 3 to push 6 45ppm laser printers. An IT Director for a local company in here in Pgh PA. (STEELER COUNTRY) worked some magic with a black box, some wiring, and things I don't know about, but we were able to get the 6 printers to parallel print the same document on each machine all at once. Anything is possible with patience and a positive attitude. Good Luck.

Re: The future of our industry, your thoughts?
I think we're all going to have to get really good at selling software that solves our clients' business & workflow problems. If we don't someone else will, whether from inside of our industry or outside of it. Smart dealers are going to have to realize that more of their revenue has to come from services, software & anything that can generate recurring monthly revenue. This will likely mean losing revenue at some point, because hardware sales revenue will decrease, & it takes a...

Re: The future of our industry, your thoughts?
Just look at all the major MFR's, the "down the street business" is going to dealers and global/healthcare/legal/govt are all going direct. The dealers can't handle those accounts nor do they have the expertise to implement the software solutions that are standard in those type of accounts from Cleveland to Miami to LA to NY where direct does. So local accounts = dealer larger accounts that are all over = MFR vertical teams
