May 3, 2007 Ottawa, Canada – The Utility Company, the leading provider of information technology (IT) as a utility to small and medium-sized businesses (SMB), today announced the latest enhancements to its market-defining managed services franchise program available in 2000 exclusive markets across North America.
The Utility Company was founded to address the two major problems plaguing businesses today:
• Over-spending – the fact that the average business spends $360 per user per month on technology for an industry total of $400 billion annually.
• Under-utilization – unfortunately only 15% of this investment in technology is actually utilized.
Beyond Managed Services (BMS) is a revolutionary franchise opportunity that provides SMB service organizations and technology professionals with a new alternative to “Do-it-Yourself” managed service programs. The program includes a complete business system to enter and prosper in the managed IT services industry along with the emerging utility services market. BMS 2.0 is the only franchise system available for managed services and includes two programs:
• Affiliate Program – targeted at existing SMB service organizations looking to add managed/utility IT services to their businesses. The Utility Company is branded within the existing service business.
• Entrepreneur Program – traditional franchise “start-up” model for technology sales and service professionals where the operation is fully branded The Utility Company
Key features of BMS 2.0 include:
• Branding – Critically important to the channel, the new affiliate model provides the best of both worlds with both the existing and franchised business brands co-existing.
• Complete business system – Includes complete front and back-office support for sales, marketing, administration, network operations center, helpdesk and service management with 80-90% of the service catalogue delivered remotely.
• Vertical channels – Provides a means for SMB service organizations, such as office equipment dealers, telecommunications resellers and Web agencies to break into managed services.
• Multi-territory options – Discount schedule now available for purchase of multiple territories with an area developer program for specified markets.
• Utility Service Center – Remote monitoring and management platform for network, desktop, security and data back-up, including customer relationship and service management portal.
• 1-866-My-Utility Live Helpdesk – New Voice-over-IP system provides unified communications for franchisees and helpdesk professionals to seamlessly support Utility customers with anywhere, anytime coverage.
“The new features we have added to our Beyond Managed Services franchise program allows vertical channels such as office equipment dealers and telecom resellers to painlessly add recurring technology service revenues to their existing business,” stated Mark Scott, President of The Utility Company. “Through our Ut
