Sharp Dealer Pricing

I can send that to you

Much appreciated as always Art!

Your sales people need to have the "Come to Jesus" talk with your prospects.  In most cases leasing or buying a copier means a long term commitment with that dealer of the manufacturer. 

Once, I find out that the customer is considering Sharp, I have that moment with them. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't.  The prospect needs to know the financial condition of the Sharp, the impeding sale of Sharp and the reason why Foxconn is buying Sharp. We know the reason and it's not because they want to get  into the copier business, it's because of the apple LCD technology that Sharp has.  The copier division may be around tomorrow, next month or next year, however I seriously doubt that the copier division will be around two years from now.  Most likely sold to Samsung.

Telling the customer is one thing, however, if you have something in writing about the financial perils of Sharp as a leave behind or proof of what you are stating can help your sales people.

Just sent it to you, hope to have an updated one soon.

Yes I fully agree with you. I just had that talk with a guy today and he had no idea about their financial situation. I have had reps who do not like to use info like that and I continue to ask them why they won't use public information like that to better their case for the customer to make an informed long term decision to move forward with them.
