Grand Slam It!Why HP doesn’t sell remanufactured cartridges “I’ve had two customers in the past couple of days that wanted to know if they could refill their cartridges. I told them that HP uses a special formula for their ink that cannot be duplicated. I also explained to them that HP spends a lot of money on research and development as well as recycling and that they do not remanufacture their cartridges but reuse parts of their cartridges so they do not end up in a landfill like many remanufactured cartridges. The customers were impressed with my explanation and said that they would only buy Original HP Ink from me.” – Jen, Virginia • Launched Mar 2012 • 1,160 completions through June 2012 • 4.5 stars
Grand Slam It!Getting the most from HP PurchasEdge “The old buyer at a big account was "old school" and believed price was the only determining factor in toners and printers. He often bought cheaper printers and toners. I showed the new buyer the value of HP printers and toners and the advantages of PurchasEdge. The new buyer now buys HP cartridges for all of his existing HP printers. He also bought a new HP printer and plans to buy more.” – Lee, Texas • Launched in Apr 2012 • 1,056 completions through June 2012 • 4.5 stars
Grand Slam It!Support the planet with HP PurchasEdge & Planet Partners “One of my larger customers has been ordering remanufactured cartridges for a while. They wanted to buy a new HP printer. I pulled a usage of all the remans they were buying and had a list of HP toners to show them. I presented the HP Trade-In & Save, PurchasEdge and Planet Partners programs. I sold them the entire package, explaining that when you use HP toner with HP printers, you can benefit from HP programs. They will never have to worry about a damaged or defected cartridge (they had a couple of issues with remans before), and they are 100% guaranteed–if anything happens they will be replaced. Now, not only is my customer happy because I look like the winner and the expert, but my margins and sales have gone up by 20%!” – Whitney, Maryland • Launched in Apr 2012 • 1,021 total completions through June 2012 • 4.5 stars

Mystery bonuses “HP PurchasEdge helped me win and close a new customer I’d been calling on for 8 months! They had a PurchasEdge account but NEVER sent in their invoices because it was such a hassle for them. I explained that we could simply link their PurchasEdge account number to their Admiral Express account number so their qualifying purchases/invoices would AUTOMATICALLY roll to HP PurchasEdge, so she didn't even have to lift a finger. Housecalls Home Health opened an account with me THAT DAY! She loved the fact that it would be automatic! LOVE HP PurchasEdge and Planet Partners; they help in closing new accounts!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.” – Tanya, Oklahoma
