Vlad, thanks for the opportunity to get this out to SBSC Partners - really appreciate it.

A couple of things which I forgot to mention and which I think are important are that Microsoft are running some Global Campaigns around October 2007 whose call to action for customers will be to contact SBSC Partners. Microsoft want PALs to articulate the value proposition of these to the Partner Community or to help build that value proposition.

There will be a dedicated Microsoft PALs site on MSPP but probably not until September and SMB Nation are writing an article on the PALs Programme with all the contact details of the individuals.

Point is get communicating with us and thinking of suggestions as to how Microsoft can support us in selling more and doing it more effectively. These will get fed back direct to Microsoft Corp via Andrea Russell, WW SBSC Programme Manager and others.
