Why is the SMB space so important to your business?

The Small to Medium Businesses in the U.S. make up for over 90% of all companies! Most of these companies cannot afford the cost of the internal infrastructure resources like trained IT staff and high powered servers. With Microsoft's cloud products any SMB can equip themselves with PC management, corporate mail solutions, websites and a blog in minutes. 

That wasn't the good news. The good news is that they will need trained professionals to accomplish the lofty goals they have for getting current with technology and what better way than to reach out to a competent Microsoft Partner? This is the great news, that Partner can be and should be you. 

According to the U.S. Census Bureau: http://www.census.gov/econ/susb/ 
·             There are over 10,837,269 SMBs in the U.S. with less than 99 employees ( Over 95% of all businesses )
·             The SMBs in the U.S. make up for 60,866,558 employees ( average of 6 employees per business )
·             These SMBs make up for over 2 Billion dollars a year in payroll!

When you take it all into consideration - the Microsoft cloud offering is the best thing to happen to the SMB market since the internet.
I'll write more about how to get this done in a post on my new site at www.microsoftpartner.info which is designed to give you the 1 2 3 on how to succeed as a partner in the Microsoft Partner Eco-System.

WIT - What you may not know about this phrase...

Wit is defined as a form of intelligent humor of course, however, the WIT I'm referring to is not that simple.  It's an acronym that our partner Microsoft uses alongside many other other organizations and partners throughout the industry.  This blog is all about how these "WIT" people have enabled RyanTech. W OMEN I N T ECHNOLOGY At RyanTech we've worked very hard to create an image of credibility, investment and second to none support for our customers.  Over the years we've invested time in organizations such as EO ( The Entrepreneur's Organization ), IAMCP ( The International Association of Microsoft Channel Partners ) as well as the MCC ( Microsoft Community Connections ) and participated in the Partner Engagement Board for Microsoft's Worldwide Partner Conference.  All of these engagements have brought value to Me as the CEO and the company as a whole however what's most important about these engagements is that it's taught me to h...

If you had an opportunity to give a room of graduates advice, what would you say?

This would be the most touching opportunity I could ever embrace.  I did not graduate college. I did NOT succeed or did I?  I did WIN and I did NOT WIN. How does one contradict ones self?  Simply through drive and love. Where do you think the name RyanTech came from? Me? Nope!  Although if I had a dollar for every time I was called Ryan I'd be filthy rich. This young man named Ryan is my son and he's done an amazing job with life.  Working summers, winters and after school time in college at George Fox University where he recently graduated with his BA and prior to that being educated at Modesto Christian School since Kindergarten. He's the best McMillen to have ever been gifted life.  He's married to an amazing woman, Cortney, who graduated from Corbin University in only three years and invested time at Oxford.  What a resume! From the day he was born I told him "You're going to college no matter what it takes" and he lived the dream of gettin...

When Partners Partner

* When Partners Partner, great things happen.                Such is the case for RyanTech and eLeaderTech. Microsoft Partner eLeaderTech, located in Salt Lake City, UT had been developing a product called Executing the Standards, a.k.a. "ETS",  for over 3 years.  In their attempt to build out the software in the .Net framework as well as many other third party objects, the system began to take a road of its own in the sense that the software almost seemed to have a mind of it's own.  Due to the many different programmers and companies involved in the buildout over the years, the code had become unmanageable and the software suffered a potential self destruction. Enter RyanTech, another Microsoft Partner that had been providing ETS with Data Services through its API for a product called DMSi.  The relationship between the Founder of eLeaderTech, David Ibarra, and RyanTech's Founder, Kevin McMillen started to bl...
