Event details
Go beyond the basics of listing and explore what truly drives velocity.
For SaaS companies, the Microsoft Marketplace is no longer just a procurement convenience, it’s a strategic revenue engine. Yet while publishing a listing is simple, reaching that first transaction quickly is what separates software development companies who scale from those who stall. Dive into operational readiness, CRM-native automation, seller engagement, trust signals, and AI-enabled acceleration. Whether you're just getting started or looking to optimize your Marketplace motion, this session will provide you with information that will turn your first sale into a repeatable growth engine.

Good morning, as the former BizApps PDM at Microsoft I wanted to ensure the community realized that the marketplace is now driving leads directly to partners from customers around the world exploring the marketplace. If you have been in the marketplace for a few months and are seeing little interest or leads it should guide you to further optimize your listing and also do a competitive analysis of other solutions in the marketplace. I am and have always been excited about the Microsoft Marketplace and hope you are too! - John O'Donnell - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnodonnellmsft/

why can't you use Outlook Calendar instead of iCalendar?
- v-kylecallahanBrass Contributor
Hi CTAiLLC Clicking Add to Calendar downloads an .ics file. Outlook supports this file type.
Go to Outlook and open your calendar, then right click the iCalendar file to open with Outlook, you'll see the Add calendar > Upload from file window pop up. (Note: this window won't appear if you are in Outlook email; you must navigate to calendar view.) Choose the calendar to add the event to and select "Import".
