Fall Conference Highlight: Migration Madness and April 8

In business, there is a work-a-day concept called “bread and butter” work. Highly trained lawyers stoop low to write wills to pay the rent. It’s understood and a necessity to running a small business.

So when I introduce the concept of performing Windows XP migrations before the April 8, 2014 end-of-life (and support) deadline, I want you to listen to me with an open mind and heart. Now hear this: WINDOWS XP MIGRATIONS ARE YOUR GREATEST REVENUE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE NEXT YEAR!  (Do you understand what I just said?)

And where can you quickly master this migration madness craft? At the SMB Nation Fall Conference of course. Over three days (October 10-12) you will be invited to immerse yourself on one of several pathways. The pathway I’m highlighting right now is the MIGRATIONS MADNESS pathway detailed below:

Migration Madness (MM)
Technical!!!

KEY1: April 9 Zombie

MM1: XP Migration Strategies

MM2: Upgrading XP to W8 without throwing out the PC

MM3: Don't Be SOL Over EOL

MM4: Technical Guidance for Migrating OFF Small Business Server (SBS)

Not only is this line of work an assured outcome (replacing an older XP end point with new-new equipment) but we have found that you can make around $150 per end point to perform a rip-and-replace. Do silly math, and you’ll see that one client with a handful of XP machines will easily pay for your “live experience” at the fall conference. And the rest if pure profit from there!  

BONUS: We offer a migration certification for exactly this work called the “Certified Migration Expert” that you can attain at our fall conference by attending lecture and passing an online assessment.
