Below-market rates on virtually every IBM brand
Low Rate Financing continues to be one of our most popular promotional offerings, with below-market rates, flexible payment plans, fast approvals, and a single periodic payment for hardware, software and services. At these great rates, your clients will probably find their monthly payments on a 36-month lease are actually less than the purchase price divided by 36. That can be a pretty powerful sales incentive!
And now, with minimum transaction sizes as low as $1,000, it's easier than ever for your clients to qualify for Low Rate Financing. Even mid-sized companies can finance IT acquisitions at exceptional rates that used to be out of reach.
Almost every IBM brand qualifies for these terrific rates, from powerful systems and storage to software and services, so clients can finance their entire solution at tremendous savings.
With all these great products available at such incredible rates, it's easy to see why Low Rate Financing is one of the best ways to sell more of the IT solutions your clients need. So be sure to make Low Rate Financing part of your complete IT solutions!
