NAGASA Joins with IBM to
Offer Special Member Discounts

Washington, DC, August 20, 1999: Technology has become the tool for survival and the key to success. To provide members with the latest technology, the North American Graphic Arts Suppliers Association (NAGASA) announced that it has teamed up with IBM to offer NAGASA member companies a variety of IBM home and office products at discounted prices.

The goal of this partnership is to help members perform at a higher level at home or in the office. This program makes life in a connected world easier and less expensive since NAGASA member companies qualify for up to an 8% discount off IBM prices when using this new service.

IBM has made it easy to take advantage of this program. After getting into the Members-Only section of the NAGASA web site, go to the resources page and click on the IBM hyperlink. After a keycode is entered that NAGASA will supply, this link connects to a website created specifically for members to browse or order online.

Alternately, members may call an IBM toll-free number, enter the NAGASA-specific keycode, and speak directly with an IBM sales representative who can answer questions and handle any orders.

Featured IBM products will include award-winning, innovative products such as the Aptiva Desktop PC, ThinkPad i Series Notebook, printers, scanners, Workpads, software, services, special owner privileges, power tools from the IBM commercial portfolio, and third-party complimentary products.

IBM, which has been recognized for the past seven years for its service and support with an "A" grade from the PC Magazine's Reader's Choice ballot, has noted that it is committed to making the NAGASA partnership the very best program in the market place, and to this end the company is developing new programs and promotions to help insure this will remain the case.

Details, including the keycode, are being distributed to members in an upcoming Highlights mailing.

The North American Graphic Arts Suppliers Association (NAGASA) is the world’s largest association devoted to the needs of dealers, distributors, value-added resellers, and manufacturers who sell through these organizations. NAGASA and its member network represent more than $4.5 billion of traditional and digital equipment and supplies within the total $6 billion printing and imaging channel marketplace. With hundreds of member firms, NAGASA is dedicated to advancing the channel as the source of value added quality products and services for customers.
