Microsoft Announces First Small Business Specialist in North Alabama
(PRWEB) August 23, 2005 -- Microsoft Corporation today announced that Jamison Technology is the first company in Northern Alabama to attain Small Business Specialist status in the Microsoft Partner Program, with competencies aligned specifically to small-business technology and business needs. As a member of the Small Business Specialist Community, Jamison Technology has demonstrated expertise in planning and building solutions for small businesses. Small Business Specialists receive a rich set of benefits from Microsoft, including access to training specifically designed for the small-business industry, small-business marketing materials for reuse, special partner offers, and the ability to use the Small Business Specialist logo in marketing materials, which can help give them a competitive advantage in the marketplace.
Jamison Technology recently opened in the Shoals to provide IT support to small- and medium- sized businesses. They provide services ranging from full outsourced IT management to consulting and project implementations to help small businesses increase their efficiency. Their unique approach utilizing proactive monitoring and management can provide predictability to the expense of managing a small business technology infrastructure.
Jamison Technology is extremely pleased with our status as a new Small Business Specialist, said Jamie Jamison, owner of Jamison Technology. This special designation allows Jamison Technology to effectively promote ourselves to customers as having proven expertise in delivering high-value, strategic solutions for small businesses. For Shoals area customers, Small Business Specialist status provides Jamison Technology with early line of sight to new products, services and programs from Microsoft Corp., which can extend the value we bring to our client relationships.
Small businesses are looking for partner companies that understand their unique business needs, said Craig Kampel, Gulf States Area General Manager, Microsoft Small and Midmarket Solutions & Partner Group. With resources like the partner locator tool in the Microsoft Small Business Center Web site and the Small Business Specialist Community, it will be much easier for the Shoals small businesses to identify local partners that are best able to address their specific needs. We are confident this offering will help Jamison Technology reach its full potential by creating more visibility, opportunity and demand in the local small-business segment.
As one of the requirements for attaining Small Business Specialist status, Jamison Technology had to pass Microsofts Small Business Sales and Marketing Skills Assessment, designed to test the companys knowledge of the dynamics and dependencies of the small-business market, as well as the value to small business of several software solutions, including Windows XP Professional, Microsoft Office 2003 and Windows Small Business Server 2003. In addition, at least one individual in the company had to pass a certification exam that measures the ability to design and implement solutions for the small and medium-sized business by using Windows Small Business Server 2003 and the Windows Server System.
Jamison Technology is committed to being the best technology services firm in the Shoals. We pride ourselves on our ability to communicate the benefits of using technology in business to anyone.
