Another day another blog!

Still pushing for more customers! July and August each year are our quiet months for Dynamics Nav! So updated the web pages to show 20% reduction promotion for these months. Then sent an email to existing clients to confirm reduced rates for all purchase orders place in these months. Already had a response from 2 clients. Begs the question whether our Dynamics Nav day rates are too expensive! We are at least 20% less than Dynamics Nav Solution Centre rates before the special promotion - some Solution Centres charge £1k per day compared to our rate of £550 per day!
Also spent a lot of time requesting new relevant connections on LinkedIn. Relevant again defined as either being relevant to our services. So fellow Dynamics Nav professionals or accountants.
That's all for now folks!

I know what you are thinking - 2 blogs in 1 day!

Another update as promised in the last blog of this morning!
Picked up comments via LinkedIn that potential customers like to view customer testimonials. So I have spent this week collecting these and updating the web pages with a new page and link. Started with a template confirming services and some comments. Most agreed by clients. Then asked for a summary comment for each client. Had some back and these are now loaded onto the usual web sites:
www.dynamicsconsultant.co.uk
www.navisionconsultant.co.uk
www.fraserpriceconsulting.co.uk
At the moment these are testimonials for Dynamics Nav work. In July we will collect and post non Dynamics Nav work.
As more summary comments come in from clients, the websites above will be updated.
As my kids would say, 'laters'.

Has it really been that long?

Time flies when you are having fun! ;)
It has been such a long time since I last posted something to this blog. Lot has been going on and now I have time to post a blog entry.
Now in generating new customer mode hoping to get more and more Dynamics Nav customers. Since the last blog we have managed to secure 2 more customers. Doesn't sound much but that is not bad when you are relying on the web search engines and a bit of luck to get new customers.
The Dynamics Nav reselling channel is managed by Microsoft. All potential customer enquiries are pushed to Dynamics Nav Solution Centre. We are not big enough to be a Solution Centre so we do not get any direct referrals. Our customers have to search and find us on the web. We get a lot of enquiries considering and our hit rate when we get a contact is excellent. This is down to price (at least 20% lower than a Nav Solution Centre day rate), service proposition (we listen and turn around requests very quickly) and meeting the clients specific needs.
More details on www.dynamicsnavconsultant.co.uk.
Currently offering 20% off our normal day rates of £550 per day plus VAT. So that makes it £440 per day. Email us for more details at neil.fraser@fraserpriceconsulting.co.uk.
Next blog either later today or tomorrow. Promise to update regularly now!
