A lot of computer consultants and business users have been talking about Server Core, one of the most discussed parts of the new Microsoft Small Business Server 2008.  Basically, it’s a version of Microsoft Small Business server, minus the Graphical User Interface; there is no taskbar, start menu, desktop, etc., though there are some tools that still stand.

As Microsoft instructor Glen Weadock reports, a lot of people in his classes and other industry professionals have commented about how Microsoft is not offering deals on Server Core, despite its lack of features.  It is being marketed as the same price as all other Microsoft Small Business Server packages.  While larger organizations do not seem to mind the issue, small businesses that have to pay for individual licenses have wondered why a seemingly “lesser” product would be the same price as the fully-stocked product.

Weadock offers his own opinion and invites others to comment, so for more information on this Microsoft Small Business Server story or to weigh in, visit the attached link.

Are you still unsure about whether or not you want to use a support contract-centric business model with your computer consulting business?  If you want on-going revenue to sustain your business, the only way to go is through long-term, steady relationships with clients on a support contract.

The truth is – you can’t build your business around one-shot deal customers and panicking small business owners or you’ll find yourself over-worked and unable to make ends meet.  But, don’t take our word for it.  The following three testimonials from those that used tips from our Computer Consulting Kit to grow their businesses and incorporate the idea of the support contract should give you some insight:

“The Computer Consulting Kit assisted me in getting the contract agreement in place, then the SLA (service level agreement) in place.  This yielded me $200,000 AUD.”  

-    Rob Morgan, Proactive I.T. Consultants, Austinmer, New South Wales, Australia

“Because of the Computer Consulting Kit, we implemented client service agreements and now have better relationships with our clients and consistency in cash flow.  The Computer Consulting Kit provided the plan for establishing service agreements.”

-    Daniel Sherwood, Sherwood IT Consulting, Tamworth, New South Wales, Australia

“Thanks to the Computer Consulting Kit, I increased the number of service agreement clients by 100%, by providing a contract template and structure to my rate sheet.  This earned me an extra $25,000 this year.”

-    Gregory Brewer, Vowire, Brighton, Michigan, USA
