Software Solutions and Management Tools for Your Business
Alliance Solutions Group Named Top 100 Value Added Reseller
Press Release
December 9, 2011
Bob Scott’s Insights Names the 2011 VAR Stars
Middletown, NJ – Progressive Media Group’s Bob
Scott’s Insights (www.BobScottsInsights.com) has
selected Alliance Solutions Group (ASG) as a
winner of its 2011 VAR Stars award. One hundred
resellers are selected each year for this honor.
2011 VAR Stars have a practice involving the
sale of mid-market financial software and while
most derive significant revenue from other
sources, accounting software is the core to
their business.
Revenue is not a factor in selection and VARs
are not rated. The No. 1 and No. 100 members of
this list have equal standing. Factors taken
into consideration included growth, industry
leadership and innovation. There are very large
and very small dealers in this list. An effort
was also made to selects resellers who represent
a broad range of products.
This year, VAR Star candidates were asked what
they have done to respond to the economic
conditions. Several common areas emerged from
those VARs who commented (not all provided this
information.) Few of these were surprising, but
all are important.
They are as follows:
- Diversifying product lines.
- Holding onto talent.
- Maintaining or increasing marketing budgets.
- Performing mergers and acquisition.
Bob Scott’s Insights provides the mid-market
reselling community with news and analysis
giving them insight into the issues that affect
the business of resellers and vendors alike. It

market a quick-and-easy read that is both

Bob Scott has been informing and entertaining
the mid-market financial software community with
his email newsletters for 12 years. And he has

through June 2009. He has covered the

the same time and continues to address that
profession as executive editor of The
Progressive Accountant.
