Value Added Reseller ProgramJonokeMed™ Certified Consultant (MCC)
Ideal MCC canditates would already be selling services to the medical community, and/or is a current user of JonokeMed™ and wants to start his or her own business. Typically, an MCC does not sell hardware or networks. Instead, expertise includes an understanding of medical offices through his or her years of experience in that field, and includes knowing how to use JonokeMed™ to maximize workflow, streamline information management and lower costs in a medical clinic. This program is designed for software consultants, either independent or associated with a Jonoke Reseller Network (JRN) Member, who are interested in becoming certified in the installation, implementation and support of JonokeMed™. MCCs are subject to required training programs, and an exam schedule for placement in a certification system. Although MCCs are not authorized to sell JonokeMed™, they still utilize many of the benefits of a JRN, as described below. BenefitsMarketing/SalesMCCs have the opportunity to participate in product demonstrations to assist in the training process. They are provided business assistance and online partner relations. MCCs are also provided constant communication and opportunities to network, so as to further enhance their degree in technical skills and industry knowledge. This is provided through conferences — which occur at various times depending on their degree of involvement — plus scheduled training sessions. Also, more regular opportunities of partner enlightenment are afforded via such methods as newsletters, conference calls and meetings. Support/TrainingTraining courses provide MCCs with recommended sales methods and technical understanding. This sales training focuses on why the JonokeMed™ solution is the single superior choice for clinics, on detailing the benefits of using the software and on establishing an understanding of the needs of potential clients. The technical components of the courses describe both the minimum and recommended infrastructure for the JonokeMed™ solution. MCCs are able to request pre-sale technical support through Jonokes toll-free number (1-800-254-0739). BusinessThe MCC designation allows you to use your expertise and training as a marketing tool, opening up vast opportunities for consultation. This has the potential for large profit recognition. MCCs are given financial incentives to further their education by being able to earn recognition based on the number of training hours put in, which translates into discounts on other workshops or conferences, or a reduction in the price of renewal fees. RequirementsMarketing/SalesAn MCC must be able to demonstrate applicable knowledge in many forms of support and training areas. This may be in the format of, but is not restricted to, tests, mock training sessions and any other requirement deemed appropriate by Jonoke. In order to ensure continued certification, an MCC is required to maintain the number of training/support hours at a level deemed appropriate by Jonoke. Support/TrainingAll MCCs are required to attend a two-week training session in their first year, and to assist at a new JonokeMed™ install. The two-week session must occur prior to any testing procedures and, as a result, prior to any certification. As well, all MCCs will be subject to any further training requirements deemed appropriate by Jonoke throughout the lifespan of certification. This includes being required to pass ongoing tests of new features, via the web. Ultimately, all MCCs must prove their ability to assist clients with all support needs. BusinessThrough continued communication and training, levels of productivity will be determined by Jonoke software. De-certification may occur as a result of not conforming to these requirements. |
