Demo2Win is one of the best classes I have ever been to. If you EVER give demo's to customers, this class is for you. These classes are heavily subsidized... So hurry up and register before they sell out. I am doing two of them as ain instructor, so watch...

It is not very often that I recommend a tool that we don't make. :-) You will find a few if you search the archives, but maybe only one or two. This tool just saved my bacon in a HUGE way. You ever had an XML file and wondered what the differences were...

  Thanks go out to all of you who have attended one of the partner Readiness Tour events or have registered to attend one. You’re no doubt feeling the excitement as we build toward launch in 2008. Microsoft Dynamics CRM has outpaced the growth...

Thanks for the release of this... :-) We are fortunate to have partners who can do this much faster and better than we can internally. :-) (We beat my guess by 6 days...) This Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 RC0 VPC is designed to allow you to demonstrate...

Some of you may have noticed that the CTP3 VPC has recently been pulled. The Image has expired. (And the easiest way to fix that for the short term would be to turn your system clock back a couple of weeks.)  And as Mike noticed, the PartnerSource...

Sean and Melissa are on the team that are developing some content for a V4 based SDK course.  Do you have any interesting ideas that may be able to leverage our SDK that we could develop for use during our training.  We aren’t asking...

This is an awesome blog that after reading one post, it immediately hit my RSS Feed List.... If you have a sense of humor at all, check out what David from our office team is blogging. Here is his cartoon for today.... You may want to subscribe as well...

These got posted while we were in Pittsburgh doing the actual event. :-) The components are very similar to what we used here in the US for the tour. But they are NOT identical to the ones we did in the East. We moved the slides around and cut some of...

CRM is not just about an application, rather a set of business processes. One of the ways to reach out to customers is over Instant Messaging. I have seen a number of commerce sites that have drastically improved conversion rates by including chat with...

Not on your machine... Sure that others will take care of that. :-) But in the Microsoft Dynamics CRM 4.0 VPC, there is NOT a good set of emails in the inbox. Wouldn't it be nice to have a tool to help you? Beth from RSM McGladrey has been bugging...

About once a day I am getting questions from partners about the August 2007 Image with partners reporting that they are getting requests to log into the application from time to time. So like when you go into settings, customizations or right about...

Jim Glass was nice enough to post my latest favorite feature on the CRM Team's blog. I will be working on more of them over the next couple of weeks as the launch events continue. If you want to read the latest installment, you can check it out at: http...

So we have been doing the Partner Readiness Tour for a couple of weeks. This week for me was Reston. Next week is Pittsburgh and the following week is Malvern. This week was great. We had about 90 people in the room with partners with a wide variety of...
