TJ Caveney, VP of Sales and Marketing will be presenting "Customer Self-Service: Electronic Software Distribution - The Competitive Edge" at the upcoming Software Licensing, Alliances, and Marketing Conference in Boston on April 29th. TJ's session is currently scheduled for 1:00 PM on Wednesday April 29th.

This presentation highlights how establishing a customer self-service center can help boost your company's competitive edge through better customer support, and reduced product delivery and support costs. It starts out defining the base functionality that a customer self-service center should have and how the customer can be empowered to act when and how they feel it necessary while having their needs better serviced. The flip side is the company downloading support costs, streamlining distribution and reducing service calls. The presentation outlines the goals and discusses how a phased approach can provide tactical wins while addressing strategic goals such as increased sales, marketing, business intelligence and internal productivity gains and reduced time-to-market.
