What about the channel partners?

June 30, 2010 by Wayne Small 1 Comment

Microsoft exec Frank X Shaw last week blogged about their favourite numbers here.  Now for an organisation that we are told is so channel focused, it really surprises me that in all the favourite numbers, this MS exec failed to mention how proud he is of the channel partners, the channel partner program or ANY of us that are out here selling his products for him.  In fact he failed to make mention of any of the channel at all.  I can only guess that in the drive towards the cloud, that this MS Exec is not so concerned about the channel partners that actually SOLD all those units that helped MS get to where they are today.  Surely the MS Partner Network is something to be proud of, given MS say they are not interested in a direct sales model. 

I should give thanks though… to the people like Eric Ligman and some of the local MS Australia people who do work in the channel – they are the stars…

    Undeniably imagine that which you stated. Your favourite justification seemed
    too be at the web the easiest factor to keep in mind of.
    I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while other folks think about issues
    that they just do not recognize about. You managed to hit the
    nail upon the ttop as well as defined out the entire thing with no need side-effects ,
    people can take a signal. Will likely be again to get more.
    Thank you
