We had a ricoh rep come in a while back and tell our team that boxes were going away and if they didn't get on board with solutions/MNS/MPS/Services etc they would be left behind. I believe the solutions will play a major part in the future, but I don't think the box is going anywhere. My father who has done this for about 40 years now tells me about all the people in the 80's talking about going paperless and not neededing the box anymore to conduct their business. Historically we have not...

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...

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

Re: Leasing MNS Hardware VS Copiers?

TML ·
Not being specifically in the MNS/MIT side I can only answer what I know from having good friends and some networking references in that space. I still hear an awful lot about leasing in the MNS/MIT space as it helps keep the technology current. Several of my larger clients run their copier leases as 36 month FMV to mirror their tech leases. They see the value in the tech recycle and are moving some of their stuff to the cloud so they need to lease less hardware. We've seen a good split on...

Leasing MNS Hardware VS Copiers?

Stefan Christensen ·
I posted this to LinkedIn and discussed with some people already, but I would love to get more perspective on a trend I see. I work with copier dealers that successfully lease the majority of their sales, but on the MNS side most customers are paying cash. 1. Why did customers first start leasing copiers rather than cash or traditional financing? How did it come about that 90% of all sales in the BTA channel are leased? 2. Where is the disconnect for MNS/MIT hardware? Is it just how it's...
