Only 11 days (8 business days) left to get $125 back per Office license!

This offer is NOT being extended past the September 30, 2006 deadline, so if your customers are even considering making the move to Office Pro or the Small Business Desktop Advantage, now is the time for them to do it so they can claim the $125 per seat rebate from Microsoft. That’s right, the end of this promotion is next Friday.

For those of you not familiar with the promotion:

Acquire Microsoft® Office Professional Edition 2003 through Microsoft Open License or Open Value or acquire the Microsoft Small Business Desktop Advantage (which includes Microsoft Office Small Business Edition 2003) through Microsoft Open Value now and receive a cash rebate of up to $125 per Office license. Get up to $25,000 in total cash rebate value. Plus, the Small Business Desktop Advantage includes upgrades to Windows Vista Enterprise and Office 2007 Small Business Edition when they are released.

Want to take advantage of this offer through the Small Business Desktop Advantage but your customer wants Office Pro instead of Office Small Business Edition? No problem. Take a look at our earlier post on how to get Office Pro in your Small Business Desktop Advantage license instead of Office Small Business Edition through the Step Up offer.

Here is the link directly to the rebate page if you want more details.

UPDATE: As of October, 2008, platform options (such as the Small Business Desktop Advantage) are now handled through the “Build Your Own Platform” model. Here is the post that explains this new option for you.
