The posting by Kristi Hofer, national Microsoft Dynamics ERP channel manager, said Microsoft was also launching substantial partner incentives. Maybe Microsoft didn’t mean to suggest that there’s a shortage of new business buyers for ERP software. But it’s hard not to read it that way. The Give Me 5 deal offers five users for $3,000. This applies to Dynamics GP, NAV and SL and both advanced management and business essentials for customers who have not owned a Dynamics ERP product. The deal started on October 3 and runs until June 22. Users must buy a one-year Business Ready Enhancement at a five-user list price. Resellers can get rebate checks in August starting at $25,000 for 20 to 29 adds and rising to $60,000 for more than 50 adds. Microsoft also will provide a $5,000 Q2 Kicker Rebate for those who drive more than 10 customer adds during the current quarter and also get more than 20 adds by the end of the campaign.
