Comztek launches Microsoft reseller competition

Johannesburg, 26 Jan 2005

IT and communications systems distributor Comztek has launched its Microsoft `Join our World` competition for all Microsoft resellers in which R50 000 in prizes is up for grabs.

The competition runs from 1 February 2005 to the end of May 2005.

To qualify for the lucky draw, resellers must purchase R5 000 or more of Microsoft full packaged products or open licences from Comztek.

"A R5 000 order gets resellers one entry into the draw," says Calvin van Wyk, Microsoft product manager at Comztek. "And if you sign-up as a new reseller and buy qualifying products valued at R5 000 or more, we guarantee you two entries into the draw."

The grand prize is a dream holiday worth R40 000 to any destination of the winner`s choice. There will also be weekly draws where resellers could win:

* A Microsoft Elite wireless keyboard and mouse; or
* A Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer and Imation 128mb USB Memory stick; or
* An entry-level Microsoft keyboard and Mouse with 100 spindle Imation CDRW pack.

"The competition, which is part of an extensive Comztek and Microsoft campaign, aims to raise reseller awareness that Comztek does more than merely distribute Microsoft software. There will also be a strong educational element around Microsoft`s licensing options," explains Van Wyk.

"We provide value-added services which enable resellers to offer their customers technical support, software management and licensing solutions. Our solution offerings include both Microsoft desktop and server infrastructure requirements and our technicians are trained in all the latest Microsoft products.

"We also have a fully functional, 24-hour technical service and support centre with full backup stock, which is available to all resellers through customised reseller service level agreements (SLAs). We also offer resellers various training opportunities," he says.

Comztek was awarded the Microsoft Distributor of the Year award in 2004 for its:

* Diligent stock management of the Microsoft product range;
* High level of Microsoft technical and sales skills;
* Value-added service provision.
