Overview

Comprehensive WiMAX Package

The Comprehensive WiMAX package includes the Mind Commerce WiMAX Business Plan, WiMAX Business Planning Tool, and WiMAX RFP. This represents the most comprehensive WiMAX business planning kit available today as it provides a business plan, planning tool with working spreadsheet, and RFP. Each of these are also available separately.

WiMAX Business Plan

The WiMAX Business Plan contains over seventy pages of high value content that will enable intelligent WiMAX investment and deployment decisions. While there some documents on the market forecasting only return on investment, this is the only WiMAX business plan available that will allow the buyer to focus on the WiMAX-specific services that every enterprise subscriber needs including specific industry verticals where the WiMAX pitch should be a "one-call close". The plan contains the latest Wall Street objections to WiMAX and how to defeat those objections. The plan provides alternatives for both residential and enterprise-based business plans.

WiMAX Business Planning Tool

The WiMAX Business Planning Tool is an in-depth working ExcelTM spreadsheet-based tool that provides a wide ranging set of variables to be programmed into the spreadsheet including details related to WiMAX parameters as well as VoIP and video delivery concerns.
