Part one: Microsoft Canada Superhero SMB Story: the rise of JCC Consultancy to help the Microsoft Non managed SMB Partners in hands-on executing their Cloud Strategy, Sales, Marketing and Competence management plans.

     

Hi everyone,

2 weeks ago when i had a meeting with Microsoft Canada, they thought my business story of JCC Consultancy is an inspiring superhero story for the Microsoft Canadian SMB partners market. Microsoft Canada asked me to write a story and approved the following story.

This story was published by Microsoft Canada:

MSFT for Work CA @MSFT4Work_CA: Learn how one #smallbizsuperhero formed his company to help other entrepreneurs. Read more: msft.it/6015qnKz @jeanclaudechan

My name is Jean Claude Chan, born in Suriname, South America, raised in Cayenne, French Guyana (also South America) and moved to Amsterdam Netherlands at the age of 6. I come from a real entrepreneur family who has successfully introduced a supermarket chain in Surinam and French Guyana. I am 39 years old, married and have one newborn little girl.

At the age of 6th my parents moved to the Dutch capital Amsterdam in the Netherlands where they also ran a company store successfully for 30 years. I was told by my parents, ‘if you do business, do it with passion, dedication and perseverance’. After finishing my Grammar School and International Business Management education at the Business School of Amsterdam, I started my career within the commercial business world and dreamt to have my own business.

Last year at Microsoft World Partner Conference in July 2013 in Houston, Steve Ballmer said in his keynote: “Microsoft is changing her organization and the change will impact our partners worldwide. Microsoft partners are forced to change their current business model and create new business propositions which are sustainable and profitable in the long-term”.

There are about 750.000 Microsoft worldwide and only 20.000 of them are selling Cloud solutions.  What is the rest doing?” So my idea was born at that evening at WPC Houston and I have founded JCC Consultancy in 2013.

JCC Consultancy is a real niche player in this market and has helped Microsoft Non Managed SMB partners make better Strategic choices, empower the Microsoft way of working and drive excellent hands-on execution in terms of Sales, New Business Development and Lead Generations.

Our 3 vision focus towards 2016:

1. H​elping Microsoft Non managed SMB Partners to make the right choices and helping them in executing their plans in terms of Strategy, Sales, Marketing, Delivery & Change Management

2. Providing and inspire Microsoft Non managed SMB Partners with the latest and valuable Executive Microsoft intelligence regarding developments and changes within the Microsoft world via our special portal site for Business Decision Makers from Non managed SMB partners worldwide: www.jcccloud.com

3 .Making sure that by the end of 2016 we have helped or inspired over at least 2000 Non managed Microsoft Non Managed SMB Partners worldwide. Therefor,  JCC Consultancy has created a special Yammer Group for Non managed SMB Partners worldwide: https://www.yammer.com/microsoftnonmanagedpartnerworldwide/#/Threads/index?type=my_all

“We only help out Non Managed SMB Partners if they are willing to change, to be a pioneer and to invest”

JCC Consultancy has talked to many Microsoft Non Managed SMB Partners worldwide and we only help and support those who have the following 3 ambitions:

1. You are willing to change your company (internally and externally);
2. You are willing to be a leading and innovative company instead of being a follower;
