NuKote Cross Reference on Steroids
Are you feeling the affects of Nu-Kote International’s Bankruptcy? It affected one large internet retailer and they stopped by our booth at the World Expo this year. Their comments and questions were, “Nu-Kote has a cross reference guide for ribbons, toners and inkjet cartridge, but it only covers the imaging supplies that they carry, can you help us out with the other products we carry? Do you cross reference other high margin supplies and accessories? What about paper rolls for receipt printers? What about a cross reference for batteries? Do you solution have a memory cross reference? Do you have a projector cross reference for lamps and lenses?”
Simple answer, “Yes to all of the above, plus more!”
The Nu-Kote cross reference service for Imaging Supplies has sufficed for many years, but as manufacturers and distributors expand their product lines and add more depth to their SKU offerings, businesses need a Nu-Kote-like cross-reference on steroids with a shot of B12.
Most internet resellers think they get a cross reference for free from Nu-Kote; that’s not quite true. If you sell any Nu-Kote product they are make a margin from the sales you just got! What do you think that margin is? It’s anyone’s guess.
Simply put, if an internet retailer can lower the cost of goods plus the expense of using a third party cross reference system then that results in more GP dollars.
Simple, but true….this large internet reseller stopped by our booth last year before the Nu-Kote’s bankruptcy filing. This year that same large internet reseller came by our booth to say “thanks”. They are realizing better conversion rates, more sales of the higher margin products and more GP dollars.

Have you ever come across one of those Office Max or Office Depot bids that has their part numbers. Don’t know what a 197092 is? Tired of trying to figure out what the product is? Is it a beating to enter one part number at a time on their site? Still having problems figuring out what it cross references to?
We are now in Beta production of an Office Supplies Price Comparison Tool for Dealers and End-Users. There are over 12,000 part numbers cross referenced to Office Max, Office Depot and Staples part numbers, all in one cross reference database.
We think this tool is especially nice for the end-user, which gives the end-user of office supplies a simple tool to compare the top three Office Supplies super stores and their web store prices prices to their contract prices. Everyone out on the internet uses OEM numbers, but on those special contracts, these retailers have been using their internal part numbers.
No one has taking the time to match these numbers up to the OEM number and better yet, cross reference to their competitors.
In recent lawsuits for State agencies regarding overcharging on office supplies, this tool should be a great help for the end-user to check and compare their contract prices with these retailers.
We will enjoy any feedback – give it a try, it’s Free to use……It’s the internet – and remember don’t tell anyone!
You can also get code for your own Office Supplies Cross Reference for your site. How will you use this tool?
