Business Partner day starts today. I flew in last night and got a phone call at 6am from a client with a server down. So much for sleep.
Took the 5 block walk to the Palace Hotel where the conference is located. Along the way saw many examples of inner city art, sculptures, exhibitions of artists work in almost any and every place. The things I miss working a 1/2 mile from home normally. Will try to get some pictures later this week. On the flip side sad to see so many homeless and questionable activities going on in this part of the city.
This morning Larry Augustin opened with the state of numbers. Where Sugar stands, where we as Business partners stand. He made a point, which I had put into my sessions, making life easier for the user is key.
Some great marketing plans coming out, Google ad-words campaigns now part of the ecosystem as well. Nice to see when a Vendor knows how to help their partners. The Zift program is really nice and easy to use.
Great to see other Sugar Partners in person finally and to see SugarCRM employees as well that I haven't met in person yet.
Social online helps with social in person. Now if my memory worked as well.
Will post more over the week. If you are out here, catch me either on the SugarCon app or find me at my sessions.

Very interested to learn about SugarCRM integration with IBM solutions Keith. Any news around Connections integration, use cases would be great.
ReplyDeleteAdam, Can't say anything till tomorrow after Alistair speaks. I'd steal his thunder.
ReplyDeletePost will go up about it.
