Yes, We Call Our Blog "Now We're EtherSpeakin"
| | "Hostifying" the IP PBX? The Advantages and Challenges of Evolving to Recurring Revenue Solutions
 "...So, the reseller says "OK, this time around, I won't sell you our new ( insert the brand you sell Mr. Reseller here - ShoreTel, Cisco, Zultys, Vertical, NEC, etc.)
system Mr. Customer - I will rent it to you." Customer nods, "In
return, you pay me a fixed or variable price per seat for a defined term
- usually one to three years." Customer likes it (he doesn't have to
buy nearly as much), and the reseller closes the deal, sells / rents the
customer some IP handsets and other network gear necessary to run the
solution properly - and everyone is happy! But wait, then the reseller
considers a few things on the way home - he/she just took responsibility
for the customer's communications - soup to nuts! Nice job man, don't
be shy, you just stepped up to the world of recurring revenue!" Continue to my blog
Hey IP Phone Manufacturers - What Have You Done For Us Lately?
"...What exactly is a customer getting for that ~$100 to ~$700 unit price
other than different look, ergonomic plastic and pixel density? On the
other side of things, the iPhone and Blackberry (or "typical" smart
phone) are the main business tool used by most knowledge workers. I
would wager that for many of us - we do more minutes on our cell phone
for business use than on our expensive IP Phone. For purposes of my
blog, a "knowledge worker" is an individual who works on an Internet connected computer. Continue to my blogThis Just In: Using SIP to Achieve 911 Compliance - huh?"...I was intrigued - typically resellers and customers are coming to us
asking for POTs as a "lifeline" for 911. However, in this case, they
were looking for the complete opposite. They wanted to use EtherSpeak,
with centralized trunks, to achieve 911 compliance for dozens of remote
sites. We addressed the challenge and won Kaplan as a client." Continue to my blog |
