The DCS - Datamax-O'Neil Reseller Program

Have you considered selling Thermal Printers, but been concerned by your companies lack of knowledge of the technology, the lack of support and the total lack of knowledge of your potential supplier or their lack of stock or spare parts? Our sales of Datamax-O'Neil products grew by 50% in 2010, and we now have almost ??% of the New Zealand Datamax-O'Neil market, so we must be doing something right! We have a growing number printer enquiries from around New Zealand, and we need more companies to help answer and support these potential sales.

We are implementing a DCS Resellers Program, designed for the NZ Market, where we will give you full and free training in product sales and service, depending on your requirements. (I always feel its a good idea for the salesman to have some idea how the printer is built!) You will also have full access to a range of NZ based sales and support documents and technical information. We are looking for:

  • Businesses who are interested in Re-selling Datamax-O'Neil Printers

  • Businesses who are interested in Servicing Datamax-O'Neil Printers

  • Businesses who are interested in both Re-selling & Servicing Datamax-O'Neil Printers

Ideally you should already be supplying IT solutions to businesses, and want to join in the phenomenal growth that we are experiencing. We will give you an exclusive geographical area or market segment so that your investment is protected. To improve the sales standard, we have also stopped supplying "casual" re-sellers. Obviously, resellers will also have access to our range printer support hardware, software and scanners.

Your only commitment will be to attend our FREE annual product training sessions, in our Auckland office, at a time that suits your company. Training for new staff will be given when required. Our aim, is to help YOU grow your business with Datamax-O'Neil.

If you are interested in this oportunity, then please phone Andrew on 09 912-0850
