  41. Wanna Be One of The Millionaires? 10 Tips “ “How-To” ” Work with the Telcos 41% page% Copyright%©%2007%MIMOS%Berhad,% 41!

  42. The 10 TIPS – ?How-To? 1.  Survey the market and survey the apps that have been launch by the telcos in Malaysia. Do not duplicate things which have been launched unless yours is being proven to be better (features and can get more revenue). Ensure you have good technical support to convince the telcos. A good product need to have proper customer service support and clear product roadmap. Its not something which is "one-of" sort of app. You cannot simply "run" away after selling the product to the telcos. Have a system that can consolidate your data (trafc) against the telcos. There might be variances that you might challenge with the telcos. And normally the telcos have the right to use their trafc data to make payment to you. Ensure your apps have the right capability to charge the customers. Get a reliability system to host your application. Cannot aford any downtime. 2.  3.  4.  5.  page% Copyright%©%2007%MIMOS%Berhad,% 42!

  43. The 10 TIPS – ?How-To? 6.  A telco can commercialize with a techno-preneur but if possible (advisable), work with an established company (CPs) that have establish relationship with the telcos to be your business partner. Its easier to convince this way rather than an unknown company. Be fexible in your business model. You might lose in the short term but gain in long term. There are times when the telcos didn't realize that a revenue share model can be very risky to them and fnally they have to pay A LOT to the CPs. How they wish they just buy the solution.... Get to know the people in the telcos to ensure you have the buy-in. Some sales life-cycle can be 1 month but some can be 6-12 months period. Don't expect fast wins. Don't raise your hope so much if there is a verbal agreement from the telcos. Things are so "volatile"... Decisions can change very fast. Get an ofcial award letter. 10.  Ensure that your products have the trust from the customers. Don't cheat them and try to make fast money. 7.  8.  9.  page% Copyright%©%2007%MIMOS%Berhad,% 43!
