    Value Propositions

    THE IDEA

    THE BASIS

    WHERE'S THE MONEY?

    The help desk/ call centre

    I view a help desk as a frontline to the company.  It has a high contact with the client on many respects and should represent what the company is.  If you're selling cars smooth, reliable cars that get the job done, your help desk should be the same.  But, the help desk can be more.  (see right) 

    A small hypothesis: a car is a car (compare the cars in the family saloon category for example).  So where's the added value gone?  Into the services.  A help desk is an important service and provides huge added value.  It is also one of your main customer links but also can be a sales centre. Most customers phone, or email, with a query or problem about a product.  The help desk can solve this query or resolve the problem, but why not sell the product needed there and then?  Or why not help the customer select an upgrade?

     

     

     

    E-Business certification program

     Universities provide e-business courses but do not have access to current trends and the companies provide certificates that are based too much on the technical abilities of their products.  This certificate would be different by supplying to universities a course that would ultimately certify that the students have the mental ability to work in the new economy but are fully versed in current technical trends.

    Plenty of Universities are keen to jump on the band wagon, they need a company that can provide them with real-life examples and constantly evolving managerial styles/skills.  What if you were the company to provide such a course?  You could teach the students how to think in this fast paced world but provide a self-renewing course on tools and management developments (trying to of course keep out bias).  Students would finish with an MBA from a reputable school, but also a certificate of e-business competence from a reputable company.  The interest is you will have access to the best managers of tomorrow before anyone else, and probably be paid for it.
