Gijs, ik denk dat het net ff wat langer nodig heeft dan het 1e q 2012.
Men had of heeft het over:
MARKET AND PRODUCT
At this year’s Annual General Meeting we stated that Sopheon’s growth strategies for 2012 and beyond centre on three key objectives:
• Increase our rate of growth by deploying vertical-specific marketing strategies
• Broaden the use of our solutions within existing accounts
• Expand direct and indirect distribution channels to generate new accounts
During the first half of 2011 we invested in all three of these objectives and are seeing early evidence of progress.
* Laatste regel: and are seeing early evidence of progress.
* More recently we invested in development of an account management program, hiring a team of experienced inside sales professionals whose focus includes selling additional products and services to current customers. This program is showing early signs of positive impact, leading directly to sales of Accolade Portfolio CenterTM, Accolade Idea LabTM and Accolade Vision StrategistTM to existing accounts. We expect these results to continue to build and to contribute significantly to future growth.
* a growing number of accounts are also coming to us for help in using our software to make product innovation decisions, portfolio adjustments and business course-corrections quicker, and with greater confidence. With prolonged economic instability taking its toll on more and more companies every day, we expect that the conditions underpinning service and licenses revenue from our existing customers will continue.
*Overall, we expect that the momentum resulting from our channel investments in both Germany and North America during 2011 will pay significant growth dividends in 2012.
* En van de maand, of liever komende maand zullen we ongetwijfeld nog van hen horen, immers men verwachtte nog wel een en ander binnen te halen.
Ondanks dat ik het allemaal hierboven plaats, hoop ik ook echt van harte dat het vanaf volgend jaar allemaal maar up gaat, en met behoorlijke bedragen.
Groet he,
Frank.
