Office Connexions
Our management and administrative group that brings you Office Choice also has another option for dealers who may want another more basic alternative to the buying group option. Office Connexions has been launched to respond to market demand and is a viable alternative for the smaller dealer or a dealer who does not require the services of a buying group.
How is Office Connexions different to a Buying Group?
Not every independent office products dealer wants to join a buying group. Some dealers value their independence, or, due to their smaller size, find it is not cost-effective to join a buying group – they cannot justify the membership fee versus the projected benefit.
As a dealer, you may question whether you fit into the group mould, or simply, you may not wish to be a member of a group. Perhaps the volume and variety of services provided by the buying groups are not suitable to your business.
However, most dealers still want to compete in a professional and efficient way. They want marketing materials that will increase business, help them gain new customers and raise their profile. In addition, to participate effectively in your local market, you can gain a competitive advantage being a part of purchasing program that gives you lower buy prices and a generous rebate program.
A unique offering - Office Connexions
Office Connexions was developed as a unique package that allows independent dealers to get to market in a professional, structured manner at an acceptable cost. It is a group of like minded independent office supplies dealers who value their independence, but who want basic marketing and purchasing benefits to assist business growth and development. That is, the benefits of a buying group membership for a low, cost effective price.
The Office Connexions package is simple. It provides a professional suite of marketing materials supported by a preferred supplier purchasing program featuring 60,000 SKUs of preferred supplier prices.
It is your choice whether you use the Office Connexions brand to badge or promote your business - it is not mandatory. However, if you decide to make use of the branding, Office Connexions will supply a visual standards guide to get you started. Alternatively, if you prefer we will overprint your own logo on all marketing literature as part of the package.
The Office Connexions package of goods and services is not designed to be as comprehensive as the major buying groups. However, it is specifically designed for those dealers who want a "no-frills" professional package.
