I was recently reviewing the more than 80 case studies and video case studies<\/a> we have published. It reminded me of a few trends we are seeing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Time to deployment is clearly important but not a guarantee of success. This industry is at a stage where we know how to launch services and launch them quickly. What is less common is how to grow the customer base. I took a look at some of our more successful partners to see if there was a pattern…there is.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

They know their customer. They have an anchor service that gets the customer what they need. They also have the appropriate set of add-on services to go beyond and delight the customer. Here are several examples I pulled from a couple case studies:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“We have implemented almost every Parallels Automation module there is. That proves our confidence in the solution. In the two and a half years since we launched our Parallels Automation platform, we have achieved year-on-year growth of over 200% in cloud services. We expect to exceed that in 2013.”<\/em><\/p>\n

— Ely Cohen, CTO, Triple C<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“In the last 18 months, our business with Limestone Networks has grown by 300%. We serve more customers, and have a bigger server requirement from Limestone. It is a win-win thing.”<\/em><\/p>\n

— Sham Kamboj, Director of Services, Bagful Solutions<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“The ability to evolve Hosted365 quickly, and its appeal to both resellers and other service providers around the world, is driving our growth as a company. And it’s all being made possible by Parallels Automation and the Application Packaging Standard.”<\/em><\/p>\n

— Marco Houwen, LuxCloud CEO and Founder<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Do you have a growth story you want to share?<\/strong><\/p>\n
