Leader Cloud July Update Webinar

Thursday, 30 July Ended

Leader Cloud July Update Webinar

Join us on Thursday 30 July for your FY27 growth playbook.

Every July brings a reset. New Microsoft offers, new pricing rhythms, and new ways to grow. The catch is that the updates arrive fast and not all of them are obvious, so it is easy to miss the ones that could genuinely move your business.

This month there are two you really do not want to miss. There is a big change to rebates that could shift how you plan your FY27 margin, and there is Copilot in 30, the trial so many of you have been asking for. Both get covered live.

That is exactly why we run our monthly partner webinar. In this session we will pull the most important FY27 changes into one clear 45 minute update, translate them into plain language, and show you what to sell, what to action, and what to plan for. No jargon, just the opportunities that grow your revenue.

Here is a taste of what we will cover.

Big rebate news, first

We are opening the session with a major change to rebates. It is the kind of update that can directly affect your margin and the way you structure FY27 deals, so we want you to hear it first and hear it clearly. We will explain what is changing, who it affects, and the simple steps to make the most of it. Come live to get the full picture.

Copilot in 30, the trial partners keep asking for

You asked, and it is here. Copilot in 30 is the easiest way to get your customers hands on with Copilot and turn curiosity into real conversations. We will show you how it works, how to get customers started, and how to use that first 30 days to open up genuine upsell opportunities. If you have been waiting for a low friction way to prove the value of Copilot, this is it.

Sell more this quarter

FY27 has landed with a stronger set of offers, and they are built to help you close deals faster.

  • Windows 365, save up to 25%. New promotions across Enterprise, Business, Flex and Government editions make it easier to lower the barrier to Cloud PCs for new and existing customers.
  • Fresh Copilot promotions. New one year Copilot offers for SMB, plus an extended Copilot Business promotion and a new Business Basic and Copilot Business bundle.
  • Microsoft 365 E3, E5 and E7 promotions extended. More time to move renewal and upsell conversations across the line.
  • Microsoft 365 Business with Copilot is now generally available. Two permanent plans that build AI straight into the core productivity suite, so Copilot is the default, not an add on.

Simpler pricing and a cleaner catalogue

Two changes make quoting easier and more predictable.

  • Annual local currency pricing. From FY27, Microsoft moves to a single local currency pricing update each January, with advance notice every November. That means fewer surprises and easier budget conversations with your customers.
  • Nonprofit plans tidied up. Duplicate three year Nonprofit plans are being retired, leaving one correct plan per product so you always quote with confidence.

New ways to win and grow customers

  • Move customers from EA to CSP. Microsoft has expanded access to the EA to CSP for Azure transition tool, opening the door for more partners to turn one off agreements into recurring, service led revenue.
  • A refreshed Copilot specialisation. The specialisation has been renamed and updated to better reflect real market demand, giving you a clearer way to prove your expertise to customers.

Meet your newest vendor, plus more on the way

We are always looking for ways to give you more firepower, and this month we have a big one.

usecure is now live at Leader Cloud. It is a human risk management platform built specifically for MSPs. In one console you can train your customers’ staff, run realistic phishing simulations, monitor the dark web for leaked credentials, and manage policies, all largely on autopilot. It is trusted by more than 2,000 MSPs worldwide, and it comes with simple per user billing, no lock in, and a free trial licence so you can get hands on before you sell it.

And usecure is just the start. We have more new vendor partnerships landing soon, and webinar attendees will be the first to hear about them.

One change to plan for

  • Agent 365 now needs Microsoft 365 E5. New Agent 365 purchases require an eligible prerequisite licence, so it pays to review your pipeline early and start the licensing conversation now.

Save your spot

If you sell Microsoft, this is 45 minutes well spent. You will walk away with a short, practical list of next steps you can act on the same week, starting with the rebate change and Copilot in 30.
