We encourage our customers to explore new ways of leveraging the various functions on offer in our software to help streamline current business processes. We recognise that every organisation is unique, and as such, through conversation we learn of new ways that areas of our software are used to meet these ever changing demands,” he added. Hayley Ratcliffe says that she believes resellers who attend will benefit from meeting a variety of exhibitors and starting new conversations which can benefit their business. “Engaging with Exertis at TECH LIVE enables resellers to find out how we can help them win, in particular we’re interested in meeting resellers who are selling our technologies in new markets and for requirements we haven’t yet heard of.” Liam Fitzgerald notes: “We’re seeing the channel continue to evolve towards subscription models and TECH LIVE offers us an audience with resellers to discuss this shift. Customers are looking for a flexible offering rather than being tied into a contract and resellers will be looking for vendors to share updates around MPS services and how they can position these products to customers. “It’s interesting to see how resellers integrate our products and solutions into their own offerings. Sharing firsthand experience of what they’re seeing in specific markets and positioning our products in verticals we might not have considered. Having the in-person conversations that TECH LIVE provides also helps us discover pain points and ultimately understand where we can review and improve our offering,” he opportunity to network and meet existing and potential new customers and suppliers. “I think resellers who attend are looking to glean insights and information from keynote speakers relating to business growth for example, as well as offers, and of course to network.” Speaking about what he liked about attending TECH LIVE, Tony Milford said there is nothing better than meeting Vantage Online and MySalesDrive customers, prospective customers and partners face to face. “A great, accessible location and a good mix of technologies represented make for an effective and productive experience all round.” He added: “Although both Vantage Online and MySalesDrive are built specifically for the channel, it’s customers and their users who usually offer us the keenest insight into where we should be going next, what we are doing well, and of course, what we can continued.
