[Marketing] Fera Tech partnership

[Robert Stolorz]

Hi, my name is Robert Stolorz. I am the owner of a small computer consulting company based outside of Chicago, IL. I have several high profile clients including several schools in the Arch Diocese. Because these are primarily catholic schools without a lot of funding Open Office would be a much preferred option over Microsoft Office. Despite being only $75 for each license this adds up. Especially when setting up an entire computer lab with 25 PCs. With my company’s labor costs and the licenses themselves this can get rather pricy. It ends up being slightly over $4000 which could be better used elsewhere. Also, my pricing for the schools is already greatly discounted.   I was hoping you had a company partnership program. I would be interested in the following things if it is at all possible to provide them.   Small PC labels for Open Office which can be affixed to PC. Quick user guides which list any differences over Office for new users. Advertising brochures which list the advantages of Open Office over Microsoft Office. Also, on your site I did not notice a list of companies supporting your product.             I would like to be added as a supporting company and possibly be listed as a distributor and service provider.             My company could provide services to install the software and give free lessons on it’s use.   I would greatly appreciate the input of your company on these matters.   Robert Stolorz Fera Tech, Inc. 8101 Piers Drive, Unit 1806 Woodridge, IL 60517
