BTA Posts 2016 BTA Channel’s Choice Ballot

Dealers to rate the performance of office technology hardware manufacturers, remanufactured cartridge suppliers & leasing companies

Kansas City, MO — Each year, the Business Technology Association (BTA; www.bta.org) provides a comprehensive look at the performance of office technology hardware manufacturers, remanufactured cartridge suppliers and third-party leasing companies based on the balloting of independent dealers. The results determine the winners for the association’s annual Channel’s Choice Awards program and are also used to produce a comprehensive report for BTA members.

Ballots for the 2016 Channel’s Choice Awards are available now. Dealer can visit www.bta.org/2016CCBallot to complete the online ballot. Balloting will close on Friday, April 29, 2016.

The aggregated results of this confidential ballot will identify the vendors that score the highest in the following categories: Corporate Support, Distribution, Inventory, Product Line, Remanufactured Cartridges and Third-Party Leasing. The results will also identify the overall performance winners for primary and secondary MFP/printer brands.

The report summary will be available to BTA dealer members during the summer of 2016. It will also be available to vendor members to encourage continued improvement of their programs.
