Like a big happy family, meeting to keep up with each family member’s progress is necessary in order to keep everything in order besides strengthening the bond among the family members. Therefore, last Wednesday, Exabytes recently organized our first ever “TownHall Meeting” which was held to raise feedbacks and suggestions on matters concerned from our very own family members.

 The thing that is so special about this meeting is that, it involves the participation of all Exabytes family members – inside and outside Exabytes HQ! How? With a little help from our dear technology – Skype, of course! Hehe. So we had it turned on, and contacted our family in Cyberjaya and not forgetting, those in India. And believe it or not, the meeting started as early as 0710 in the morning and successfully ended even before our working hours to ensure the efficiency of our daily operations. So you can imagine how early each of us had to get up on that day! Surprisingly though, all of us turned up on time (if not earlier) and none was caught nodding their heads eyes-shut, throughout the 1-hour meeting! Hehe.

Since our time was limited, we only had the chance to discuss 2 agendas, which were:

• ways to reduce our support request, and
• office environment each of us would like to have when move to our new office soon

Here are some of pictures of us during the meeting!

And of course, once adjourned, all of our hungry tummies were fed with scrumptious McD breakfast that really gave us a good morning kick-start! Hehe. Until another update from us again!

Insight @ Exabytes!

Exabytes existing resellers or potential resellers, listen up!

You’ve heard about it. You’ve witnessed its powerfulness in our previous post. So now it’s time for you to experience it, with the launch of our new plan – Exabytes Windows Server 2008 Reseller Plan!

So how can this plan really benefit you, resellers, really? Aha! Our cue to impress you begins!

	High Demand Needless to say, Windows Server 2008 is the latest and most sought-after hosting server to date. Resellers profit from the increasing demands for this server, not forgetting the ones who wish to migrate their website to this server platform as well.
	Low Cost Allows resellers to have their own webhosting business, doing exactly what providers do, at such low cost! No more worrying about spending as much revenue to start up their business, as tools and support will be provided to get their business up and running in just a few minutes!
	High Profit Resellers get to cut on operating costs such as maintaining own in-house web, mail, and DNS servers, backup generators and other network hardware & connections required for hosting, which definitely reduces their expenses, and increases their profit.
	Save Time Resellers get to concentrate on their business rather than catering to their customers’ complaints due to improved reliability performance and speed of Windows Server 2008, coupled with our professional 24/7 support as we will handle the technical support at back end.
	Private Label Resellers get to create their own unique web hosting plans, deals and services by setting up their own brand and prices. In our private label hosting reseller system, resellers get to create a stand-alone business venture while we remain anonymous to their customers.
	Ease Management Resellers get to have their own administrative web based DotNetPanel control panel that will allow them to set up, delete, and manage customer accounts with a few mouse clicks. It provides a simple, easy-to-use GUI that can be maintained from any computer with Internet connection.
	Up-Sell Opportunity Resellers get the opportunity to offer other services besides hosting webhosting accounts. These include merchant accounts, SSL Certificates, search engine optimization, and domain name registration, which all may provide additional income for them.

Features, revealed. Benefits, exposed. Now it’s all up to you to grab hold of this lucrative opportunity while it’s still new in the market. Hurry now, sign up today!
