How you’ll benefit:

This exclusive leadership webinar is designed for PortaOne customers in all roles who want to better understand how a smart CSP can make full use of our flexible API and open-access source code for more efficiency, better specialization, and higher profits. During this live and interactive 1-hour event, you’ll hear a step-by-step breakdown of an outstanding case study in automation, and get the opportunity to ask any questions you have. You’ll come away knowing how it was done, what the results were, and how you can apply these ideas to your own business.

This event will be an open, free-flowing Q&A discussion covering topics such as:

  • How to go beyond the passive use of your PortaOne platforms and leverage their flexibility and API to transform your operations
  • How you can achieve growth, survive periods of rapid scaling, and seek out large service contracts even when you struggle to find skilled help (or simply want to maintain the agility of a small team)
  • How to combine familiar tools in new ways to create innovations that will help you meet your business goals, whether you’re a startup MVNO, a mid-sized telco, or a multinational CSP
  • Why it pays to be an early adopter of emerging strategies and technologies – in the communications services industry more than anywhere else

Specific innovations we’ll cover:

In a short period of time, Otto Kolbe transformed his business from a boutique operation renting partitioned space on another company’s PortaSwitch installation to becoming an established and growing cloud-based platform. Alongside co-host Klaus Haertel, he’ll tell you how he used low-code tools to create end-to-end automation for his CSP, allowing him to bid on (and secure) large contracts without worrying about overwhelming his team. You’ll hear about integrations and strategies such as:

  • Creating modular platform structure that allows Virtual Call to add and remove components as needed
  • Using readily available tools to build in hands-free customer self-service reaching from sign-up to account management
  • Leveraging the Add-on Mart to enable recurring credit card payments, offer MS Teams integrations, and more
  • Using PortaOne Workflows to connect PortaBilling to both a HubSpot CRM and a Bexio accounting system to fully eliminate data manual entry
  • Employing an agile development process to bring a minimum viable product (MVP) to market fast, then perfect it based on customer feedback

Bring your questions and get ready to be inspired as you connect with your industry peers, learn what’s possible, and add your ideas to this fascinating and interactive discussion.
