Quick Answer

Why most reps don't sell MPS.

MPS is your dealership's key to massive recurring profit — HP Inc posts ~$1B in profit per year from toner supplies alone. You don't need to steal much of that to make a real dent in your recurring revenue.

The problem is the gap between MPS sales training and what actually happens with your customers. The way salespeople have been taught MPS — long sales cycles, complex business cases, technical pitches — is the reason it's so hard to qualify and win new deals. The way reps look at MPS needs to be rewired so they see how easy it can be to sell on the spot in days, not months.
