In this economy 48 hours setup times would be pushing it, let alone 7 to 10 days. We haven't started offering dedicated servers yet, however we can have ours up and running within 6 to 8 hours. I don't mean this in a bad way
@dominicl, however if you want to sell lots of these you have to get your setup times down to 72 hours at the most. There are a few DCs left that will stretch it to 72 hours, but that's the most anyone should stretch setup time to. The only other option is to start the customer's billing date for renewal with the date that the customer takes control of the server. Otherwise very few people will go for this. This is solid advice
Or you can always try to sell some Xen VPS servers. Grab a copy of my Xen stack at
http://repo.phoenixvps.com - make sure to also install libvirt-xen and kernel-xen. It works great with SolusVM.
Or if you get bored with my advice you can just look at this for a while :lol:
