About 10 minutes ago I became the biggest fan of the Microsoft Corporation that ever existed. Microsoft showcased the opportunity in Microsoft Online suite and presented their vision in such an awesome way that will make me and my company very, very rich.

In case you’re wondering, you’re the girl 🙂
Specifics are: you as a Microsoft Partner will recommend Microsoft Online and sign the customer up for hosted Exchange, SharePoint, etc and let Microsoft bill, support and work with your client directly. In return, Microsoft will give you 12% commission of a $15/mo service ($1.80/user/month) the first year and then 6% commission ($0.90/user/month) the year after that!
Whoever thought of this fantastic way to screw the partners and make my business immediately relevant… Thank you!
