Sage Announces September-only Promotions

Sage releases new promotions each fiscal quarter. On occasion a promotion valid for only the final month of the quarter is announced and on those occasions, the promotion is usually pretty valuable. I’ll let you be the judge this time.

By purchasing any MAS 90 module valued at $500 or more or any MAS 200 module valued at $1000 or more, Sage will add an additional user license for free. If you are thinking about adding a module, there certainly is no better time that when the publisher is giving something away, but keep in mind, your free license includes a maintenance fee that won’t be waived and will increase your annual subscription. The offer expires on September 30. Leave a comment if you have any questions.

If our economy has changed, it only makes sense that some of our marketing processes should change also.  I’m not advocating making sweeping revisions, but now is a terrific time to take a different approach or try some new ideas.  Here is a short list of cost efficient ideas and tips for a modifying your marketing process right now.

  • Analyze your list of leads. It is important to get the the right information to the right people.
  • Offer something soft like a white paper, newsletter, free trial, or webcast.
  • Create an offer with a high perceived value and a low- cost fulfillment that is unique to your company. Your offer should have specific benefits and a sense of urgency like limited quantities.
  • The offer must relate to the main benefit of your service or product.
  • Follow the rule of 3 by mentioning your offer three times. It will help the idea stick.
  • It is wise to include a guarantee with your offer.
  • Keep in mind, the most powerful word in marketing is free.

Now is the time to develop new ideas to promote your products and services. Let us know what changes you have made to your marketing plans by commenting below.

The most wildly useful Sage promotion of all time has officially  and the Spring 2009 promotions are here. I will run down each if you promise to keep in mind that I am not suggesting they will be useful to every end-user.

Migrate Your Sage MAS 90 Grandfathered Customers to Sage MAS 90 or 200 Extended Enterprise Suite Now!
There is a 50% savings available to Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 end-users to migrate to Sage MAS 90 or 200 Extended Enterprise Suite which is a bundle of applications including MAS, FAS and CRM. FAS is Fixed Asset Accounting and CRM is Customer Relationship Management. If you have multiple needs to address, this might be useful. There is also a 0% financing option available.

Enroll in Sage Payment Solutions and save $1,100 on the Sage MAS 90 and 200 Cash Flow bundle
This is the same promotion from last quarter. Because it is so convinient, I continue to argue that without accepting credit cards, you are cramping your cash flow.

Add EES CRM users to the purchase of Sage MAS 90 or 200 Extended Enterprise Suite for $795 each! A maximum savings of $1,455 each!
This affects anyone currently using the Sage MAS 90 Extended Enterprice Suite I described above.

Optimize Your Sage MAS 90 and 200 Customers’ Systems with Extended Solutions!
This is tricky because, while some Extended Solutions are listed with the promotions, Sage isn’t offering any pricing concessions. Sage has officially taken the buy-one, get-one free promotion off the table, but if these are any others are enticing, let me know and we can see what can be done about extending that great promotion.

Take advantage of Sage MAS 90 and 200 v4.3 with the new Get Back on Track plan
