Wade Timmermann

Owner

Wade Timmermann began his career in the office equipment industry in 1984 as a service technician. Over more than four decades he has worked his way from the service bench to leadership, serving as vice president of Modern Business Systems and later as president of another well-regarded office technology company before becoming owner of AAA Business Systems.

In his thirteen years as president of that prior company, Wade grew revenue from $4 million to $11 million and improved net profit to 10 percent while reducing headcount from 57 to 52 employees. He introduced processes that improved efficiency, shifted resources from non-revenue roles into sales, completed acquisitions in Jonesboro, Arkansas, and Stillwater, Oklahoma, and managed banking relationships, manufacturer partnerships, and the company’s balance sheet. He also built a $2.3 million lease portfolio separate from the operating business.

Before becoming president in 2002, Wade spent eighteen years at Modern Business Systems, rising from service technician to vice president of the Iowa marketplace. There he helped develop customer-appreciation programs, focused on matching people to their strengths, and contributed to growth in revenue and professional development.

Since purchasing AAA, Wade has led the company’s evolution from a single-office copier dealership in Northwest Arkansas into a statewide office technology provider with three locations. He has continued to strengthen customer relationships through community involvement and events such as customer-appreciation gatherings and support for local charities, including Easter Seals.

Away from work, Wade has been married to his wife, June, for many years. Together they have three sons: Cody, Jesse, and Jacob. A committed family man with deep roots in Arkansas, he remains dedicated to serving Arkansas businesses through the office technology industry.

Wade’s experience and values align with AAA’s long-standing emphasis on dependable service, quality equipment, and fair pricing. The company already serves organizations ranging from large corporations such as Walmart, Arvest, Mana, and Alcoa to schools and nonprofits. Under his leadership, AAA continues to grow as a trusted partner for businesses of every size, matching the right technology to each customer’s needs and budget.

Looking ahead, Wade’s vision is for AAA to be Arkansas’s premier, go-to office technology provider – the company businesses think of first when they need print, IT, security, AV, or document workflow solutions. That vision is grounded in treating every customer like family and delivering the best products and solutions available, so organizations across the state can work smarter, stay supported, and feel they have a partner who truly cares.
