A couple weeks ago, I heard that some of our software engineers had an interesting conversation around how they can personally help potential customers do business with Sun.   They were talking about how they can help generate sales leads & SMI revenue.   Wow!   This is not what you usually hear software tech weenies talk about.

So, the question was on table...   sitting there left unanswered.   If any of us in the software engineering side have a friend, neighbour, or relative who is interested in buying Sun kit....   or when we meet someone on a plane, train, or ferry who expresses interest in trying our products....   What should we say?

Not sure myself, I started looking into this and very quickly found one answer:

The Online Sun Store Website

After a couple minutes of browsing, I noticed the Sun Store also has a USA toll free telephone number as well:

800-SUN-0404       or +1-800-786-0404

So, that looks like one answer...

Last Sunday, while flying out to California for another Sun business meeting, I sat next to a business person who was interested in trying a Sun system in his department...   I recommended he start with the Sun Store.

It was just a tiny lead...   And who knows what purchasing decisions he'll make or influence in the future.   All I know is that it felt pretty good to point him in the right direction.
