How to Buy Technology and Save, Save, Save - Business - Customer Service

Many individuals and small business owners dream of owning a home or office with brand new furniture, the latest computers and phone systems, and every ergonomically correct device on the market. The reality is that most growing businesses and thrifty households just can't afford these luxuries.There are several ways for you to buy and save, as you look for systems to meet your needs. Some of the more obvious ways you can save a lot of money are by buying used desktop computers, used laptop computers, as well as end-of-life new computers, manufacturer refurbished computers and off-lease computers that often work just like new equipment. As systems offer different options in functionality and performance, you should figure out exactly what you need the system to do for you and look for equipment which best suits your needs. Find a reputable, manufacturer-authorized dealer to work with for assistance and guidance on used and refurbished equipment. As opposed to dealing with an individual, working with a dealer might cost a little more but you'll get greater value, higher security, and more accountability in

working with such a dealer. You also have the option to look for companies who can handle your equipment financing needs. This might be helpful in facilitating your purchase. Leasing is quite common these days as it gives businesses lots of financial flexibility and tax benefit. Leasing can be the perfect solution to installing the latest and most efficient office equipment and furniture with the least capital outlay.

As my own experience If you shop for refurbished products or used computers even any hardware, you will find savings of 20% or more as compared to their brand new counterparts. Savings levels of 60% or better are not uncommon. That means that shopping refurbished is a great way to get a high quality laptop at a deeply discounted price.Be sure to note the manufacturer warranty terms and conditions for the refurbished products.Often these manufacturer warranties run from 90 days to a year, depending on the product and manufacturer. It's important to continually look for ways to cut costs on office equipment. The money you will save buying manufacturer refurbished computers or used computers can be spent on advertising and promotions to grow the business or to help keep you afloat during slow periods. We advise you shop around and to understand the best value and banefits for your company.Douglass M. Doggett, Sr.
