Japanese electronic and imaging company, Brother International is enhancing focus in India with a bouquet of products in MFC, Laser Printers, faxes set for launch over the year. Brother International has launched a special offer on the select laser products providing the end customers with a free additional toner on purchase on 5-in-1 Laser MFC 7420 and entry-level laser printer HL 2040. The offer, valid till June 30, 2006, is a major initiative after the India Strategy Meet held at Dubai for the national channel partners.
All that a customer needs to do is to buy a Brother Laser Flatbed MFC 7420 or HL 2040 before June 30, 2006, and get a regular (high yield) TN 2025 toner free, resulting in saving for the end customer between 13 and 30 per cent. The company plans to aggressively promote the offer through multi-channel promotions utilising above-the-line and below-the-line methods.
