Like the swallows returning to San Juan Capistrano, or new gym memberships being abandoned after just five weeks, there are certainties we can count on year after year. They may not all be positive developments, but they deserve style points for consistency. We all need a level of constancy in our lives.
Rather than dwell on negatives, we can take heart in those annual blooms that bring a smile to everyone’s face, and not all of them are of the floral variety. Besides, summer is grinding to a halt, so the changing of the leaves might be more appropriate. It’s the anticipation of something special. A journalism colleague starts a countdown to Halloween clock on Facebook before spring arrives, and we all know people who erect their Christmas tree on or shortly after Nov. 1, and keep them up until Feb. 1.
And every year, around this time, your friends at ENX Magazine tap you gently on the shoulder and remind you that the deadline for submitting a nomination for the Elite Dealer issue is closer than you think. In fact, the nomination period will end in four short weeks. Being an unrepentant procrastinator myself, I can appreciate the desire to backburner tasks. But the Sept. 12 deadline will be here soon enough, and we want to make sure your company is included. Prepare to click in 3, 2, 1 …
Submit Your Elite Dealer Nomination Today
We take a lot of pride in our annual Elite Dealer project. Having a vast majority of the top dealerships in the United States encapsulated in listings with bullet points that illustrate what qualities they possess—the traits that make them Elite—really adds structure to the industry and a feeling of community.
It takes about 15 minutes to complete the form and potentially join the industry’s only Who’s Who of office technology dealers. We don’t want to miss out on having your company on our registry. Best of all, there’s no fee involved in joining the nation’s foremost dealer fraternity. The aforementioned time commitment is all that’s required.
How exclusive is our Elite Dealer list? Statistically, we highlight (on average) less than 2.5 dealers per state. That’s certainly velvet rope territory. Inclusion marks you as a formidable business, rubbing elbows with the crème de la crème of the industry.
We don’t want to be too presumptuous. For those new to the industry or unfamiliar with the Elite Dealer program, we catalog more than 100 dealers—with revenues ranging from the sub-$5 million to more than $400 million plateau—across the country every year. The listings feature important data: city/state, year founded, number of employees, top vendors/solutions/leasing partners, revenue, top growth segments and biggest accomplishment of the previous year. That’s capped by the abovementioned bullet points, the stories behind each dealer’s greatness. And we know you have a great story to tell, so don’t miss out! Without your company, our list is incomplete.
Fellow dealers, manufacturers, distributors, MSPs, leasing companies and other contributors to the industry also use our December Elite Dealer as a handy reference guide that can foster networking and partnership opportunities. The industry is already tight-knit; Elite Dealers just tops it off with a pretty bow. Don’t hesitate, act now. Again, the deadline is Sept. 12.
Please feel free to contact Publisher Susan Neimes or myself if you have any questions. And as always, we appreciate your support of ENX Magazine’s editorial efforts and sincerely hope you’re able to finish off 2025 on a high note.
