Making News
CRN just ran a follow-up piece on Xerox's agreement to acquire Global Imaging Systems. Xerox's recent distribution moves reflect our strategy to expand our reach and better serve SMB customers. And it's good to see we have everyone's attention. But I do want to clarify a couple of points in the story...
First, we are very excited about the value proposition Global Imaging Systems brings to its 200,000 customers as shown in our recent acquisition announcement. These long-standing relationships speak to the strength of the Global value proposition and we expect them to continue to grow. At the same time, we see opportunities for reseller partners to expand their relationship with Xerox as well. We are pursuing multiple routes to market to ensure the power of Xerox brand is within reach to more SMB customers than ever before. It is a huge market, Xerox has great offerings, and we are an under distributed brand. As a result, there will be significant business opportunities for Xerox, Global Imaging Systems, agents and reseller partners.
