When you’re ready to make a significant purchase like a production printer, you want to ensure you’re sourcing your printer from the best provider possible. First, this means choosing a dealer over a manufacturer, and next it means choosing the right dealer—one that will provide valuable support every step of the way.
Learn more about choosing the ideal dealer for your production printer and why you should consider partnering with CPI.
Why go through a dealer for your production printer?
Your first inclination may be to purchase your production printer from a manufacturer. Although this may seem like a good way to go straight to the source, it can actually cause you to miss out on some valuable benefits you can get from purchasing through a dealer. Some of the advantages dealers tend to offer include:
Unbiased Guidance
Dealers are, in many cases, better positioned to offer impartial advice. A manufacturer may feel the need to only recommend printers within a limited product line, for example, but an independent dealer typically has more flexibility to help tailor the ideal solution for you.
More Robust Customer Service
A dealer may also be able to offer additional services, such as installation and ongoing customer support. Manufacturers will likely offer some form of customer service, but having a local company with a smaller customer base can mean you receive better quality support and a more timely response.
Local Focus
Add to these advantages the fact that printer dealers are often local businesses. By offering your business to a production printer seller in your area, you can contribute to your local economy and benefit from their vested interest in helping fellow local businesses like yours.
