The catch-22 of technology
Nowadays, you can’t live without technology — your business depends on it. Yet, your budget is tight — spending or stretching your business capital to purchase the right technology for the office can be a hard pill to swallow. Large, up-front expenses can seriously impact your cash flow, tying up dollars for other operational expenses.
Luckily, there are ways to procure the technology you need to get the job done without depleting your financial resources. CDW offers several lease options, trade-in services and vendor-specific rebates to give you added flexibility and control of your budget.
Lease is less
With the option to lease, CDW makes it easy for you to get the technology you need — right now. That means there are no large, up-front, out-of-pocket expenses for you — simply get what you need and get to work. Then when your lease is up, you can return the equipment you leased and replace it with brand-new technology. You can choose from our Fair Market Value (FMV) or $1 Purchase Option (PO) financing options, depending on your needs.
Fair Market Value (FMV): Offers the lowest monthly payment, the most flexible lease structure and may provide significant tax advantages. At the end of the term, you will have the option to purchase the equipment for the then FMV, return the equipment or renew the lease based on the FMV Renewal Rate.
$1 Purchase Option (PO): With this option, you will own the equipment at the end of the lease. Structured so that you can own the technology for $1, the monthly payments are higher than the FMV lease since you’re financing 100 percent of the equipment cost and will own the technology at the end of the lease.
Lots of great stuff, one transaction
While
specific manufacturers may offer leasing on large-ticket items, you’re
limited to financing only that manufacturer’s products. But what if you
wanted to lease a color printer from one manufacturer and several desktop
computers from another? With these lease options, your entire bundled solution
is eligible for financing under one contract. For you, that means you’re
not limited to one manufacturer’s products or required to enter into multiple
leasing agreements with various manufacturers. A single invoice for everything
IT you need.
Best of all, leasing through CDW is easy. You can apply online and quickly receive lines of credit.
Earn credit toward new technology with CDW’s trade-in services
CDW’s trade-in program helps you dispose of computer equipment that no longer meets your needs. You can do this by trading in equipment that still has value — just as you would a car — and putting that value toward future purchases.
If your technology has reached its lifecycle, CDW can help you recycle it or donate it for a tax write-off. Ask your CDW account manager for specific information about our recycling and donation programs.
Remember that any time you trade in, recycle or donate outdated technology, you must erase all business-related files stored on the product so that your data isn’t compromised. CDW offers several software products that can help you erase data and help you protect your confidential business records.
Save with manufacturer rebates
Manufacturers frequently offer rebates on specific models of equipment. CDW saves you money by providing a list of those rebates and special offers on our Web site. Browse for an applicable manufacturer, click on the description, then print the page and follow the manufacturer's instructions. It's that easy. Look under "Related articles" for a link to our rebate page.
Now is a great time to upgrade. Through September 30, 2006, CDW is offering interest-free lease financing. Contact your CDW account manager today to learn more about your financing options for the equipment you need today without worrying about tomorrow.
