3. 3 3 Selling Servers to Small Businesses After this training you will understand: 1. Why servers are important in a small business environment 2. Why Intel® Server Technology is best for you and your customers 3. How to help small business customers overcome objections to servers and choose the best size system for their needs Copyright © 2011 Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.

4. 4 Three Reasons to Update Server Technology Stay CompetitiveSecure Your DataSave Money With higher-performing machines, employees are more productive. They get more done, faster than ever before. Nothing is more important to a business than data. Minimize risk with advanced server security features that a desktop-based system cant provide. Energy-saving processors and remote systems management cut costs. And, customers may be eligible for government stimulus offerings. KEY TAKEAWAY Now is the time to discuss why servers are a smart investment for your small business customers. Copyright © 2011 Intel Corporation. All rights reserved.

5. 5 Client-Based NetworksServer-Based Networks Router Why Businesses Need a Server-based Network Built to operate 24x7 Enables shared access to data for better collaboration Centralized, secure backup and fast recovery Enables remote access for employees, partners, and customers Work when systems are available Data resides on individual client systems Local, insecure backup and slow recovery No remote access capability for employees KEY TAKEAWAY Advance your customers’ networks.
