I started writing this on Monday morning while recovering from a four-day music conference in the Catskills that found me up until the wee hours of the morning listening to music. (Some of you may remember that one of my hobbies is presenting concerts 9 times a year.) \u00a0It takes a couple of days to recover from those kinds of hours for sure. Unfortunately, there\u2019s no rest for the weary as I have another issue of The Week in Imaging<\/em> to crank out.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s new and interesting this week is a new MPS Trustmark certification courtesy of CompTIA. A week and a half ago I spoke with Corey Smith of CompTIA and Ian Berger of Parts Now! about that Trustmark program. You can read more about it below and discover if this is something that will make a difference for your organization as you seek to grow your MPS business and differentiate yourself from competitors. Also this week you\u2019ll find another article from Dr. David Cameron on the aftermarket color toner opportunity and how improved quality is raising the bar and making aftermarket color toner products more acceptable. But that\u2019s not all, Art Post weighs in on how to keep your top sales reps in the fold.<\/p>\n

Finally, I continue to feature Elite Dealer profiles that have only been posted on The Week in Imaging<\/em> Website up until now. If you missed them, here\u2019s a great opportunity to catch up.<\/p>\n
