Established in late 2000, GDI’s roots are in education technology, having signed on as Mimio’s first partner in early 2001. From the beginning, our mission has been to deliver value to our dealers.
As a value-added distributor focused primarily on the Classroom Technology segment, our commitment has always been to provide premium pre and post sales support to all our dealers through our extensive knowledge base gained by having served the dealer community in education technology for over 15 years. From providing recommendations on product solutions, to assisting with deal registrations, we provide a suite of services unmatched in the traditional world of distribution. When coupled with our strong logistics network, deep inventories across all our product categories, and the ability to provide same day shipping, we have positioned ourselves to be a valued resource intimately tied to our dealer’s success.
We now carry the full line of Boxlight Mimio products from interactive panels, projectors and whiteboards to collaboration software to tablets, doc cam’s and assessment tools, and can recommend the right product to match up with your customers needs. In short we understand the Interactive Classroom Technology space and can leverage that expertise to help grow your business.
We look forward to partnering with you.

Partner Resources Sales Opportunity Registration Update
Boxlight Mimio is pleased to announce that the updated Sales Opportunity Registration (SOR) form based on the Boxlight Mimio consolidated price list is now LIVE! Boxlight Mimio partners can now submit a Sales Opportunity Registration for any product on the Boxlight Mimio price list.
The purpose of Sales Opportunity Registration is to insure that the Boxlight Mimio partner that develops an opportunity is able to close the opportunity without competition from other Boxlight Mimio partners. Our competitors are Smart, Promethean, Epson etc., not other Boxlight Mimio partners. A win by any Boxlight Mimio partner should be viewed as a win for all Boxlight Mimio partners. The Boxlight Mimio SOR process was developed by Mimio and is considered to be one of the best sales opportunity registration programs in the industry.
For former Boxlight partners and new Boxlight Mimio partners that are not familiar with the Sales Opportunity Registration process, following is a brief overview:
- A partner must include an approved SOR number on all purchase orders.
- Order entry will verify the SOR number when processing orders and reject any order without an approved SOR.
- With an approved SOR, the partner cost is the discounted partner price on the price list.
- Without an approved SOR, the partner cost is either the Commercial MSRP price or the GOV/ED RRSP price.
- A registration should be submitted via the Partner Portal as soon as you have identified and qualified a sales opportunity.
- If the Boxlight Mimio Regional Manager approves the SOR, you will receive an “APPROVED” email with an SOR number to be included on your PO.
- If the Boxlight Mimio Regional Manager disapproves the SOR, you will receive a “DECLINED” email.
- An approved SOR may be updated and/or extended with the approval of the Boxlight Mimio Regional Manager.
- Approved SORs are valid for a specified time; If the opportunity is not closed within the specified time, the SOR expires and is no longer valid.
- Partners are solely responsible for updating and/or extending an approved SOR.
- Keep It Simple! A new SOR is not required for the following
- Accessories (bulbs, pens, power cords, etc.) may be ordered using the most recently approved SOR number for that customer regardless of the current status of that SOR (expired, closed, etc.).
- An approved SOR should be updated/extended and used for follow-on orders associated with large projects.
Please contact your Regional Manager or GDI, if you have any questions about Sales Opportunity Registration.
Thank you for being a Boxlight Mimio partner and Good Selling!
