I saw a gold partner's quote yesterday for uccx / ipc-
Hw was 38% est.
Labor was 70% the hardware install.
The prospect asked me how lomg would what he needs take, why it was so much?
I told him turkey pepperoni, anchovies, extra basil. Oh, and I want catch the end of the yankees game after we are done.
Lol!

Any discounts passed to the customer in hardware are tripped billed back in labor (professional services) from a gold partner.
Next question.

So I can't imagine that a savings of 2 or 3% is worth being a Gold
Partner... or that bypassing a distributor is the biggest/bigger
incentive. I have to imagine that the HW discount has got to be the
biggest motivator...
Any idea what the discount is? I'm assuming it's substantial?
