1. And what the worlds best consultants often miss…

2. Current I.T. challenges
Vendor practices and schemes
Right and wrong ways to rate I.T. Solutions
What the best I.T. providers often miss
The CBC Solutions advantage

3. Technology is getting more and more complex
The old ways of spending capital no longer work
Cloud computing has added complications
Carriers often compete with each other in a way that is not in the
best interest of the customer
Fast changing environment forces decision makers to re-evaluate
more frequently

4. Telecom providers use a process called “Cramming” to add
unnecessary fees to your bill
The FTV, and states' attorneys general has brought a total of
$353 million in penalties and restitution against the U.S.'s four
largest wireless carriers –source, FCC
Cloud service providers often include a “Financially Backed
Uptime Guarantee” that is non-specific and doesn’t define their
liability

5. Contracts are written with auto-renew clauses that can lock you
into a new term without your permission
Unnecessary services are “bundled” to make a more attractive
bottom line, but cost more in the long term
Companies are forced to change their business process to meet
the needs of the technology; it should be the other way around
“If you haven’t completed a detailed analysis of your telephone bills in the past two years,
there’s a 90% chance you are being overcharged—possibly as much as 20%.” -FCC

6. Wrong questions:
How long have you been in business?
What is your position on the Gartner Magic Quadrant?
How much does the solution cost?
Is the provider a recognized name?
Better ways to rate solutions:
What are the business requirements?
Does the solution meet the requirements out of the box?
What is the Total Cost of Ownership?

7. Building Trust is better than closing a Transaction
Customer success leads to better engagements and more sales
Good support is an actual necessity, not a luxury
Your solution may not be the best match for the customer
Other providers can be your assets, not your competition
