Mark, Login to www.trixbox.com <http://www.trixbox.com/> with the reseller username and password, from there you will be able to use the marketing materials that we have built for you. /D -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Sent: Monday, October 15, 2007 11:19 PM To: Commercial and Business-Oriented Asterisk Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-biz] Check this out :( And I am the opposite, being able to program Trixbox does not make me a techie. I think the main failing of the open source voice community is the lack of sale and marketing collateral. This means we do not get the messages out in the mind of the users/buyers. Currently all our businesses exist in isolation.

Specifically on how to position value and charge accordingly. And that we all present our respective organizations as high value add service boutiques specializing in Open Source Telephony integration. This will allow all of us to offer solutions that are competitive to Cisco, Shoretel, Nortel etc. and keep our respective bottom lines healthy. Anyone who has lived through a technology adoption cycle (or three of them) knows what I am talking about. We will all be well served, as will our clients, if we go into the mass adoption phase BEFORE commodization happens. In a word - Community. Let's maintain a community of opportunists who create a market opportunity. I believe we can do this and all of us will prosper and our clients will be ecstatic.

This is my mistake for adding my two cents. At any rate different markets require different pricing structures so to all conform to one pricing structure does not make sense - this is what I meant originally. /D -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Paul Sent: Sunday, October 14, 2007 9:37 PM To: Commercial and Business-Oriented Asterisk Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-biz] Check this out :( A literate person reading my first paragraph would see that my second paragraph is obvious sarcasm. Aren't you the fool who suggested price fixing in this thread? What else would you expect? There is an old saying that there is no honor among thieves. Please let me join your stupid game so I can break the rules and cut your throat. bob murphy wrote: _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com-- asterisk-biz mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-biz
