Why Sell Genuine Windows
MAR enables you to sell higher value items and reach your revenue targets quicker.
MAR enables you to get more profit per sale.
If a Naked PC sells for $50 and a MAR PC for$75 and profit is 5% of price then selling a naked PC makes $2.5 but a MAR PC makes$3.75.
In the examples above, for every 1000 MARs PCs you sell you will do $25,000 more revenue and generate an extra $1250 of profit for you and extra $2500 for your resellers.
MAR enables your resellers to make more profit per sale.
If a reseller adds 10% margin to every PCsold, then the margin on a $75 MAR PC is $7.5 rather than $5, hence $2.5 more profit for your reseller.
Professionally Refurbished With OS Pre-installed Without OS
If a Naked PC sells for $50 and a MARPC for $75 then selling a MAR PC generates 50% more revenue per sale.
