Editor's Notes
- #3 Use: all demos Objective: Establish credibility, leadership in the O365 Business Solutions market. Positioning: subtly position us above newer competition that has just entered the market Transition: let me take a couple of minutes to explain overall what we do before getting into your particular product of interest.
- #6 Optional for C-level DWP concept
- #7 Optional for C-level DWP concept
- #10 Use: All demos Objective: Introduce the product offerings as a unique integrated solution which greatly accelerates productivity, ROI and adoption of O365. Detail: Communicate the depth of our offerings, and how they uniquely work together in an integrated approach. Also that application services takes our templates beyond simple SharePoint template to powerful solutions supported by over 100 enhanced features above standard SharePoint. Also make sure they know that they can start with IT or Internet for example, and add modules as they need them. Competitive jab: It is the only offering that goes beyond a simple Intranet home page, to provide a structure to build upon.
- #14 Use: Intranet or Suite deals only Objective: Establish a best practices that provide a structure that is in the context of the organization. Detail: After over 700 deployments, we have learned what works and what does not. From this we have established a best practices structure that provides an employee with an intuitive approach that is in the context of the organization. Competitive jab: It is really more than just a fancy Intranet web page, rather it establishes a structure to build your organization hub over time which supports typical Intranet features like news, communication, collaboration and documents. It goes beyond that to drive productivity and ROI by providing a structure for consistent access to internal service processes, help desks, and document management.

- #21 Use: only O365, can also skip for individual module Objective: Reinforce the “native” O365 positioning. That it becomes an extension to the platform, not a replacement. Detail: It is clear Microsoft is quickly transforming its MS Office domination to the cloud, and taking it much further by turning it into an organizational ecosystem for every employee with core functions and a common interface. It is important that third party extensions like and intranet or application, follow Microsoft guideline to naturally plug into this ecosystem. Competitive jab: A number of third party venders did not recognize this and architected their products to hide O365 or SharePoint. This will present major issues going forward. Analogy – it would be like replacing MS Word with another word processor in 2003. With MS Office, how would that have played out today? Not well…..
