Make Money with Power Apps

* Bemærk workshoppen er på engelsk*

Want to make money with PowerApps?

We all have seen the massive ‘marketing’ power Microsoft is putting behind the Power Platform story. But because almost every aspect of a PowerApp project is different from traditional ERP or CRM projects, QBS group is offering you this training.

This training is focused on the people, within the QBS partner community, responsible for starting the PowerApps practice. The training will cover all the basics for starting such business.

By the end of this training you will have all the necessary (management) information to get started. During the training there will be plenty of room for discussion to learn from each other.

Trainer:

This training is delivered by Sven Noomen, a 20 year ERP veteran that has started a PowerApp business unit in 2018 and has hands-on experience with the challenges you face. From his own experience, he is able to give you the real answers on how-to-do-it and what-to-do.

Target Audience:

This course is especially recommended for those partners that have done the “ App in a Day “ training.

Topics:

  • Go to Market Models and Business Models for PowerApps
  • Resourcing and Citizen Developers
  • How to Marketing and Sell your App’s
  • Project methodology for building PowerApps
  • Support and Maintenance
  • ISV options
  • Example App’s and Why Customers bought them
  • Business Case
  • Links and important resources

Create more leads and win more deals through customer education

These days, IT innovation develops faster than ever before in history. While that opens great opportunities for organisations all over the world, it also creates a lot of stress since failure is not a realistic option (anymore).

Here are some of the dilemma’s for your prospects and customers:

  • We know we must modernise our business processes to stay relevant. But how to change the organisation? And what is the best timing?
  • How can we measure the expected continuity of the vendors on our shortlist?
  • How can we motivate our team members to put full energy into the project?
  • Should we migrate to the cloud now or is it better to wait?
  • We want our staff to be more agile in their thinking and their ability to change. But how do we get there? And what is the exemplary behavior needed from the management?
  • How can we avoid that Digital Transformation turns into ‘just another IT project’ with even more complexity?
  • How can modern IT tools support us in putting our customers first?

Where are your customers today?

In order to keep up with the competition, your projects must be successful in the first attempt. With a short Time-to-Value. Unfortunately, most of your existing and future SMB customers don’t have the knowledge, the persuasion nor the power to take the best decisions. Most of them select and implement for the first or second time in their lives. As a result, that creates big uncertainty. So it’s no wonder that ‘No Decision’ has developed into everybody’s biggest competitor these days!

Customer education

Modern and innovative Microsoft Dynamics partners focus on educating their customers and help them prepare for Successful Projects. Rather than pushing their solutions. This attitude not only helps them to create more leads and win more deals. It also secures the right support from their customers’ top-management when implementing these solutions.

About this webinar

In this free, 40 minutes webinar, Guus Krabbenborg will share his observations and the results he has achieved by his extensive customer education activities. He will inspire you regarding the best way to approach customers and prospects. Next to that, he will also position three different education formats. And shares the options he sees for your company to start delivering one or more of these formats yourself shortly. Guus has been delivering ERP and CRM Masterclasses to potential buyers ever since 2005.

This is a webinar that you definitely don’t want to miss!

Reliable and accurate information

ExpandIT 365 Time is designed for consultants, team members, service technicians and project workers who work away from their office and register the time and material spent on projects and customer visits.

Many service organizations use time and material registrations as the basis for customer invoicing.

Improve efficiency, customer satisfaction & cash flow

Consultants, service technicians and project workers will be more efficient when they are on-site with customers. Unnecessary, paper-based documentation and manual record keeping can be eliminated as time and materials are recorded immediately and digitally against each project. Faster, more accurate invoicing can improve cash flow and customer satisfaction. Customers will be satisfied because of the improved transparency and project documentation.

Description:

It starts with the basics!

This training will give you the technical and business knowledge to setup and implement an effective Cloud Business in your organisation. This knowledge is crucial for cloud success.

For whom?

This training is preferably for the Program Manager responsible for the transition to or setup of the Cloud Business. Furthermore, the training is targeted at business owners and senior managers driving or supporting the cloud adoption strategy within a Microsoft Partner.

Who is your trainer?

This training is given by Sven Noomen. Having worked for Microsoft Dynamics NAV partners for 15 years, he knows the challenges you are facing. Last year Sven joined QBS and is responsible for the technical partner services delivered across Europe to QBS Partners. He is a frequent speaker at events and has a passion for technology. For QBS he is the sparring partner with Microsoft on topics like Cloud and technology adoption.

Agenda

In this training, we will shortly revisit the cloud principles. The basic “need- to- knows” to be able to make right choices for your company. Making choices costs money, so let us be sure you have all the information needed. Are you going for Dynamics 365 or hosting or a hybrid environment? What is the impact of AppSource and what are the development options for the different platforms? How do you choose the right product / market combination and how do you package your IP? Are you going for direct or indirect CSP? What are your margins in the different models? How do you deliver services in a Cloud world?

These questions will be answered and the full Microsoft strategy for SMB will be explained. All available content from Directions and Inspire, if relevant, will be shared with you.

You will walk away with knowledge to define your Cloud strategy. You cannot afford to miss this training if you want to know what the impact of Dynamics 365 and the related product strategy is.

Ik ben een zeer gedreven en ervaren sales professional met bijna 20 jaar ervaring in sales (management) rollen en rollen waarin partner management aan de orde was. Ik ben de gelukkige eigenaar van een uniek combi aan competenties: een drive om new business te doen samen met de capaciteit om op lange(re) termijn te denken en te werken aan het bouwen en onderhouden van langdurige relaties. Transparantie en vertrouwen zijn sleutelwoorden voor mij; “what you see is what you get”. Ik beloof wat ik kan leveren en daarna lever ik wat ik beloofd heb.
