SCW Provides Red, White and You Stimulus Package for Government and Education Clients

 

Innovative rebate program turns the table and provides cash back

 for government and education organizations

 

ATLANTA– April 28, 2009 –Southern Computer Warehouse (SCW) today announced it is launching the

Red, White & You rewards program, which gives government and education clients cash back on all purchases.

 

“Budgets are tightening everywhere and this certainly includes government agencies and education departments,” said Joseph Gabriel, chief executive officer of SCW. “We wanted to help stimulate the economy in our own way by providing a rewards plan that will allow already burdened programs with some extra cash. Our objective is to help lift some of the strain off of tight budgets so there is potential for our clients to continue to be successful, which ultimately makes us successful.”

 

The Red, White & You program provides a quarter of a point cash rebate on all purchases through SCW. All government and education customers are automatically eligible for the program. The rebate checks are payable directly to the agency, city, county or school district, and they may use the cash in any way they deem useful for their organization. Checks are not payable to individuals.

 

“SCW’s ‘Red, White & You’ program is exactly the type of groundbreaking initiative that is direly needed in today’s economic environment,” said Jan Jones, support specialist of Orlando Utilities Commission. “The program offers us a virtually effortless way to lift some of the strain on budgets which will ultimately help this fiscal year end on a more positive, strong note. We appreciate SCW’s willingness to step up and support clients like us with this very welcomed rewards program for purchasing quality products.”

 

SCW is teaming up with its manufacturing partners and using the marketing dollars to fund the rebate program. The company is not raising prices, and will continue to be committed to the world-class customer service to which SCW clients have grown accustomed. Some rebate programs put a cap on how much cash back a customer can get, but with the Red, White & You program, there are no caps.

 

"Our organization just received our first rebate check," said Julie Christopher, CIO & assistant superintendant for Bibb County Schools. "The program doesn't require us to change our purchasing practices, the rebates come in automatically."
