Microsoft relationship
good relationship between Microsoft and Pro Sol, difficult between ONgroup and Microsoft, technical glitch e.g. Visual Studio via Pro Sol relationship, only on a temp basis with our relationship. Move toward one relationship. Accounting: e.g. Azure
15 pages of products we have access to through Pro Sol partnership with Microsoft
Dereck will drive the expansion of the relationship
1b In next two weeks more movement on the ONgroup Africa legal front
1c cost for Azure
we have given Perry licenses, once the structure is finalized, would be under ONgroup Africa
MTC in NYC, Dereck and Warren are trying to get a date for that
Press release once we have the partnership in order, ONgroup Africa
In the mean time we need to register MVON# as a Pro Sol product
Conferences, Spectrum Zumapalooza
Microsoft as a DBMS sponsor, need MVON# registered before they would throw resources at it
we could look at getting signage for our booth rather than getting a Microsoft booth
Grant and Alan will look at that and see if they can do it
Could be a good opportunity for collaboration
Business cards, sig blocks
But do you have my name spelled correctly?
Chas will send the business cards to Spectrum
Graphic download, each time, displays correctly with a forward
some email clients do not recognize png, need to use gif or jpg
Dawn will switch to gif or jpg from png and see if that resolves Chas's issues
Box, Dropbox
Grant will remove the premium subscription to box.com gracefully
We have sent several prospects to box.com to get the mp4
Next PR or blurb
Notes about DBTA, Spectrum, Elkie, linkedin, mvdbms
linkedin completing profile better, activity among us
starting a linkedin group, group owners get some benefits hard to get elsewhere
thumbs up on this strategy
documentation
how do we respond when someone asks us where the documentation is, if they buy the product with source code it is fully documented within the code.
"we provide documentation with the product"
putting a bow on it, delivery, doc, trials, hands-on
