First Certified Partner training was a success!

Last Friday (November 6th, 2009) we had our first Certified Partner training in the World Port Office Center in Rotterdam.

The setting was a 31 story high building in the middle of the city, with a big round glass window, overviewing the river and the Erasmus bridge. The view was astonishing!

The training was set as a full day, starting with a keynote, then splitting the group in a technical and a sales track and finally bringing the group back together to do a final presentation.

The initial key note, given by Erik van Hoof, covered a little history of CWR, the new release and the reason for the partners to become certified.

The Technical track was covered by Jeffry van de Vuurst and covered the architecture, installation, configuration and SDK features of CWR Mobile CRM. It was a very interactive and hands-on training with each aspect to be performed in a VPC (included on external haddrives, given to the technical attendees as a present).

The Sales track was covered by Mark Corley (with some interference from David Savage) and covered the Nice to have and Must have scenarios of CWR Mobile CRM, including some details and examples of deals that CWR Mobility have already deployed and implemented. After that the participants got trained in writing and performing a 30-second ‘elevator’-pitch. Each participant had to write their own pitch on CWR Mobile CRM and present their pitch to the audience. The last session included the anatomy of a deal and covered each aspect of the deal, from the initial lead to closing the deal.

At the end of the day the technical and the sales team were brought back together and setup in groups of two. each group had to prepare a small demo scenario, including some customizations and a small presentation and present that to the group.

All participants were very interactive within the group, which resulted in an informal training event with a lot of mind sharing and great creative use cases of CWR Mobile CRM.
