Should I Lease or Should I Purchase a Xerox Copier?
You have probably asked yourself at one time or another, “Should I lease a new Copy Machine or should I just purchase a copy machine?” Well I believe the answer to this important question is ‘Yes’. Confusing right? Let me break down why it is better to lease a copy machine then purchase.
Items to compare to your lease
Ironically, most copiers have an MSRP around the same price point as a new car. This may seem like copiers are over priced, but when considering the amount of technology, coding, labor, and tiny tiny pieces inside the copier lease…it makes sense. Let’s quickly compare your monthly copy machine price with other business essential items in your office.
Cost of Internet – This is definitely one of the items where you get what you pay for. If you want a faster, more reliable connection, then your cost will go up. According to DSLReports.com, a user showed the average price for 100mbs (which is the bare minimum a business should be using) is $350 per month. In cities like New York, Houston, Seattle, and Portland – you can expect this to be around $500 for high speed reliable connections.
Cost of Rent – Of course this will vary based upon location and amenities that exist. Office leases are usually calculated on price per square foot. The average cost for a business located right off a major freeway is around $23 per square foot. This would make a small 1,900 square foot office cost around $3,642 a month. In Manhattan and The Woodlands alone – your tiny office space could run you $10,000 a month.
Cost of Marketing – Marketing is a very hard number to calculate as it never has a true conversation rate, because there are always fluxes happening. The more money you throw at Marketing, the more possible customers you should get. Most marketing firms won’t start working with a customer for less then $1,000 a month.
So for each of these items, you have to have in a business, why do some people believe that they should not pay more then $100 a month for a copier or print?
With all of our above examples, the average business would function great with a Xerox Altalink C8035. Our price on a 48 month lease is only $282.00 per month. Which, 48 months is the average lease length on an office space and usually Business Internet also.
