Pricing Promotion Goals
Drive incremental sales of Cisco Unity and Unity Connection in FY08
Respond to price pressures with very competitive pricing
Move the install base to Unified Messaging (UM) or Integrated Messaging (IM) to increase feature uptake, while driving incremental revenue
Increase customer flexibility – UM or IM is a deployment option, not a separate purchase
Make it simple to order -- keep existing SKUs
