Microsoft Supplier Showcase
Monday, August 27th, 2007There is a company called New Brand Vision that created and sold a service called the “Microsoft Supplier Showcase”. They raked in several thousand pounds per exhibitor but it completely hasn’t worked ! During the sales process the name NBV was never spoken of or even on any paperwork. It was all about the “Microsoft” Supplier Showcase and how it was generate leads. Having spoken to many exhibitors it appears that not a single person has ever received a lead. More over this blog gets more hits per week that the supplier showcase does ! !
Interestingly I’ve just requested a quote from someone and one hour later there’s no request in their inbox !
Maybe this is outright fraud, as NBV where never in the picture when the sales process for this service was going on. Maybe NBV never even expected it to work but came up with a way to charge customers through the nose for something that they never expected to work ! Maybe they’ve projected the same program next year, in which case the company will be sorely down on their expectations.
So personally I’d say that the Supplier Showcase was a complete farce tantamount to fraud.
