GANANOQUE, Ontario — PrintFleet Inc., a global leader in managed print software and supporting professional development services, announced the 2009 dates of its industry recognized Managed Print Services Road Show Seminar Events.
With 30 seminars and more than 1,000 dealer principles, sales managers, service and IT executive attendees over the past three years, the PrintFleet Road Show seminar series has fast become a global industry “must see” for anyone looking to get serious about integrating a managed print service program into their business model.
Themed “The Sustainable Business Model” and leveraging bold statements such as “when times are tough, leadership matters” within promotional event materials, the series IV event promises to again deliver the same high-impact, practical approach to the MPS business model, but this time headlining with even more industry leaders catering to various segments of the printing and imaging channel.
The dates and locations of the road show include: Dallas, Jan. 21-22; Miami, Feb. 18-19; Irvine, Calif., May 6-7; Chicago, May 27-28.
“A clear enabler of the rapid growth of managed print services is the evolution of the dealer and reseller channel from a hardware centric sales model to a professional services model,” said Ed Crowley, president and CEO of Photizo Group. “Providing dealers with the tools and information they need to transition to this model is critical. This is why we are so pleased to be part of the PrintFleet Dealer Seminars.
In our research into hybrid dealers (dealers who are MPS centric and who combine the best of the IT reseller channel and the BTA dealer channel), one of the clear differentiators we have seen is that the best hybrid dealers are organizations who have learned the value of educational events such as PrintFleet’s Dealer Seminars to ensure they understand the latest thinking and best practices for MPS implementation.”
“These events are so unique due to their open, convivial atmosphere which allows dealer principles to swap war stories and share strategies of success with their various MPS programs,” said Laura Hunt, director of marketing and strategic partnerships with PrintFleet Inc. “Everyone is searching for the right method to deploy a managed print services program. This is why we have assembled a team of the best in class supporting vendors and industry analysts to help steer our new events. Series IV: The Sustainable Business Model will be the runway dealers are looking for to launch their MPS programs and gain further market share from their clients.”
The PrintFleet Road Show, Series IV: The Sustainable Business Model has a promising lineup of sponsors and speakers including: Synnex Corporation (event sponsor); Photizo Group (keynote sponsor); GreatAmerica Leasing Corporation, Parts Now!, Supplies Network, LMI Solutions and Compass Sales Solutions (partner sponsors). Other industry speakers include Lyra Research.
