Digital disruption: “We have got you covered” Sage tells partners

As the Sage Summit got underway on its second day in Sandton Johannesburg, the Sage has reassured its business partners that it has a clear strategy to be the champion of its entrepreneur.

The key note session dwelt on the firm’s commitments to business partners, business building through excellent customer experience, as well as business building and sales success.

The sessions emphasized the need for business and individuals to adapt to change as the only strategy for survival in a digital disruption era, noting that the concept of doing business  have shifted whereas organizations have not.

Laurica Kok, Sage’s Director of Partner and Alliance, assured the partners that Sage innovations are built to create less administration by streamlining approach.

“Our partner commitment to you is to consistently meet our customers involving needs, finding out our next happy customer and growing together,” she said.

Keith Fenner, the Vice President of Sage Enterprise Africa and VP Sage Middle East, in his contributions also re-enforced previous assurance on Sage’s strategy for its partners against digital disruption.
 
“Our strategy is to enable our partners with the right resources,” he said.

“You have to change,” he said, adding that “it is not an option, but the key message is that Sage has got it sorted out for you.”

Andrew Honey, Group CEO of Entrepreneur Media SA who addressed the plenary on ‘Business building and sales success’ admonished the partners to develop the right message in communicating the need for change by answering the customers unknown.

“Until the client understand that the cost of staying the same is greater than the cost of changing, there will be no change," Honey said.
