How do you search for IT infrastructure and telecommunications services when you need them?
It can be a costly, time consuming, frustrating, and high effort experience...unless you have a secret weapon. It's even better when that secret weapon is free.
If you are like most companies, you might go online to see which service providers can service your area, realizing that not all of them present accurate information about your specific location online at their web sites.
If you have multiple offices across the country or even across the world and want to standardize on one carrier, what are your network service provider options?
When you find one, then you play telephone tag with that carrier for several days until you find the right person there that can answer your questions about service, availability and price.
And all this assumes that you already know exactly what you’re looking for … don’t expect them to take the time to ask and fully understand your application or requirements, or in doing so, to suggest a better approach, perhaps even with a less expensive option. Then a few more days pass before you finally get a price from them for something that hopefully, maybe, with any luck, will meet your needs.
Then you repeat the process for the next carrier that can service your location while another week passes, and so on.
So say you found four service providers who could service your location with your requested service. Given about a week to get a price from each one, now a full month has passed since your first phone call to find out if this will fit into your budget. In the meantime, your competition is passing you by and business continues to be prosperous … for your competition, who found a better way of doing this mundane and arduous task. More on that in a minute.
Do you see the fundamental problems here? Let’s outline them:
Problem #1: It’s now a month later and you are still at basically the same place you were a month ago with no circuit on order.
Problem #2: Are you really comfortable that you have contacted ALL the first tier carriers that can service your location? Could there be others?
Problem #3: If you found a “super price” from a second or third tier carrier, are you comfortable they can really provide what you need; comfortable enough to not use a first tier carrier? Yes of course you search for reviews online but is what you find fact, fiction, marketing hype, or even comments from an isolated eternally-disgruntled customer?
Problem #4: How comfortable are you that the prices you were given for the circuit are as aggressive as the carrier is willing to be with them? How do you know if better pricing is possible with a first tier carrier?
Problem #5: If you order the circuit, sure they have 24×7 tech support but who’s going to go to bat for you if the carrier is not resolving the problem or the people in billing don’t understand why your invoice is wrong … again?
Problem #6: You’ve got a business to run, and taking time to deal with the problems above are not allowing you to focus on much more important tasks to make and keep your company as competitive and profitable as possible.
