to
target IT resellers across India,

Solutions is planning to
conduct a total of 121 workshops in 55 cities by March 5, 2012.
The
company has already organized 6 workshops in Bengaluru itself.
Titled as
'Mathematics of Happiness,' the workshops are intended to help
resellers scale up their business. Tally is investing huge
amount of
resources in this initiative, and according to it, this would be
one
of the key enablers for speeding up the IT adoption in the
country.
Avinash
Gupta, president, Tally Solutions said, “While 'Mathematics of
Happiness' workshops are being conducted by Tally, these are not
focused on Tally as an organization or product. These workshops
are
about planning and enabling the resellers for explosive growth
in the
IT space. If we look at the landscape, around 4 mn SMEs have
adopted
IT in the last 20 odd years out of 8 mn. We as a country don't
have
the luxury of waiting for another 20 odd years for other 4 mn to
adopt IT. We need to add velocity to the whole IT adoption. The
workshops provide an opportunity to the IT reseller community to
consciously recognize the opportunity and work out specific
plans to
cater to it and to add momentum to their growth.”
According
to
the data, Tally has less than 7 lakh installed base of its
licenses
and therefore it seems that Tally is targeting to expand its
business and aims to get good revenue out of this.
Gupta
further
added, “These workshops are not about Tally sales, but about
growth
in the total IT business of a partner. We are very confident
that
after these workshops, once partners start adopting and
practicing
the learnings, they will see a quantum jump in their revenues.
We believe the increase could be more or around 100% in the next
12-24
months.”
Speaking
on
the benefits of these workshops, Mitesh Jain, RT Computers said,
“As
of now only master Tally partners are able to provide services
and
support to their customers but after these workshops, it may
also
help small dealers know the technicality of this software and
deal
directly with their customers in terms of service and support,
apart
from their business benefits.”
