There's an interesting thread about an RBS sales person that person accepted $3,500 from a copier sales person so that RBS could win that bid of 73 copiers.  Which raises in interesting question about gifts,trips and prizes to a person that works for a corporation if they buy their copiers from xyz dealer.

It's my understanding that any gift, trip or prize is then the property of the corporation and not the person (decision maker).  Yet, we find some dealers openly engaging in offering these items for purchasing their copiers.

Yes you are correct. The blinders go on when something is “given” to them. I’d be lying if i said I didn’t do it but the customer and everyone involved knows it’s there and listed on the proposal the whole time. I use it strategically with accounts I want and switch back and forth with things to keep competitors on their toes. Sometimes it’s a tv, sometimes it’s An iPad, sometimes it’s football tickets l, gift cards etc. it’s never the same for a particular machine or vertical market.
