South African specialist distributor, Workgroup, has been named Microsoft’s Distributor of the Year for the third year in a row. The Distributor of the Year Award recognises Microsoft’s top-performing business partners, specifically acknowledging companies who exemplify a true partnership through innovation.
“We will never tire of receiving accolades of this kind from Microsoft and it is a reward made even sweeter in the knowledge that we were dedicated enough to meet the stringent criteria, yet
again,”says Shirley Gottschick, Infrastructure General Manager and
Director at Workgroup.
“In order to be named Distributor of the Year, Workgroup had to achieve the best results overall as per targets set by Microsoft. We showed ourselves to be strongly aligned with Microsoft, its
initiatives and activities and offered high levels of service to our channel consistently over the year, showing an increasingly proactive approach to customer satisfaction.”
Workgroup has also shown consistent annual growth in sales growth with Microsoft, proved its abilities to create new business with innovative customer marketing programs and helped existing dealers
achieve significant revenue gains.
Doug Woolley, MD of Workgroup says that receiving this award for the third consecutive year is a measure of recognising the effort Workgroup’s dedicated Microsoft division has put into the brand and
acts as a means of justifying the company’s driven investment in resources that help grow business through Workgroup’s channel.
“Workgroup prides itself in the broad integration of its varied product offerings,”he says. “We offer scalable internal systems and a distribution model that is comparatively top notch, a fact that
we feel is reinforced when we are given awards of this kind.”
