Steal away! I got those pics from a guy I know in Tennessee. I believe the customer bought online after he submitted a proposal to the customer and then ended up calling asking for support and help and sent him these pics asking what to do.

Manufacturer and the non-authorized reseller are the winners. And I believe that because everyone gets paid when a box moves, nothing will change and its going to get much worse. A couple years back one manufacturer opened up their entire product line to distribution (85ppm A3). I'm a dealer of the products and compete against non-authorized sellers and the internet often. My advice is to prepare yourself for the conversation in advance. Be ready to talk to the customer about why you should...

I’d take that price point for the equipment any day, especially since everyone is buying them off special programs etc. .043 per square doesn’t seem bad. I like .05 per square better though and that’s where I used to put it.

Purchase and lease price are high.............but if the person can get it good for them. I'm probably going to be $1K lower on that system day in and day out and even lower if I smell competition. Service price is right.

Yes, that quote somewhat high, however the system does have a $22K MSRP. Does anyone get MSRP anymore?

I just hit singles day after day after day. Every once in a while I hit a double or a triple. A home run just a couple times a year. My on base percentage is very very high. If I started swinging for the fences or get cute and try to hit it down the base lines to get more doubles and triples no doubt my on base percentage would go way down even though I'd get lucky every now and then. Most players who spend too much time swinging for the fences wash out of this league in 3 years or less.

I recently lost a large opportunity because of the wishy washy "rules" we have with net new business. Of course we pay higher for net new than existing, however if the existing client buys another business, it's a fine line between if that's new or existing. Problem is you won't know until you get your co statement. Thus, I had to go in with decent GP and I got hosed because another under cut the price. I could have gone lower, however I need to feed the family just like everyone else.

Losing is the Key to Winning!

Art Post ·
Special thanx to Larry and Jason who gave me a few ideas with this next blog! We hate to lose right? Nothing grinds my gears more, than losing a prospect. I expect that I should be able to secure an order from all of my prospects. I expect to bat 1.000, however the reality is far from that. I definitely lose more deals than I win. In fact, I lose about 65% of the time. Is losing 65% of the time a bad thing? I don't think so, because I know that every lost deal moves me close a to obtaining...

Better Call Art "The Thought of Poor Service is Long Forgotten After Cheap Pricing"

The quid pro quo in Sales

Art Post ·
About a month ago I had a call from an existing client to meet about upgrading two of their older copiers that they owned and were under a maintenance agreement. That call came from the new IT Director since the existing IT Director was retiring. That meeting went well and since there were four other A3 printers, service has been exceptional, I priced those two MFP's with acceptable gross profit (I'm not in this business to give **** away because we all have to eat). In addition when I asked...

Memoirs of a Copier Sales Person "Differentiating the Price Buyer from the Value Buyer"

Art Post ·
Differentiating the price buyer from the value buyer was a conversation I had last week with one of our VIP/Premium Print4Pay Hotel members. I'll start with why I found this to be an important topic. If you follow or are connecting with many of the sales soothsayers on Linkedin most of them are missing the point when it comes to selling. Note I did not mention sales but "selling" which is the act of closing the deal. Most will say create value, build a relationship, and don't drop your...
