Directions North America 2026 brings together some of the most forward-thinking Microsoft partners in the world. xMonthly will be there to start a specific conversation we’ve been working toward: helping partners expand what they offer, protect the clients they’ve built trust with, and move faster than the market expects them to.

xMonthly’s new Strategic Partnership program is the vehicle for doing exactly that, with the AI Cloud Tour Builder, our AI Assessment, and a suite of hands-on services backing that program up through deployable tools.

At Directions North America 2026, the xMonthly team will be on the ground to walk partners through the AI Cloud Tour firsthand. For partners who can’t make the conference, the same opportunity awaits. Schedule a call with our team today!

Emerging AI tools mean clients are asking for AI solutions with increasing urgency, and partners who can’t answer that question risk losing ground to competitors who can. The time, cost, and complexity of building AI-powered offerings from scratch holds most partners back, not a lack of ambition.

The AI Cloud Tour Builder removes those barriers, delivering a ready-made, white-label experience that partners can deploy, brand, and share with clients in hours.

For partners attending Directions North America 2026, the AI Cloud Tour Builder represents an opportunity to walk out of the conference with something new to offer. It goes hand-in-hand with our Strategic Partnership program, giving partners a structured, supported path to growth.

The AI Cloud Tour Builder gives you an interactive product tour that walks through the power of AI in the Microsoft Cloud, doing the heavy lifting before a sales conversation ever starts.

• Client protection through added value: When a partner leads a client into AI capabilities, the partner becomes the trusted guide for the journey ahead.

• A branded experience that reflects your business: The AI Cloud Tour runs entirely under your brand, meaning clients engage with your identity, not xMonthly’s.

• Portfolio expansion without development overhead: Partners can add an AI-focused offering to their portfolio the same day they sign up, without hiring developers or building proprietary software.

• Repeatable, scalable outreach: A single AI Cloud Tour can reach dozens of prospects simultaneously. Every view opens a conversation that doesn’t require a sales rep in the room.

• Real-time engagement alerts: Every time a prospect interacts with your AI Cloud Tour, xMonthly sends you an email notification with the details.

1. Become an xMonthly Agent
2. Access the Tour Builder

The xMonthly Strategic Partnership program gives Microsoft partners a structured foundation for growth across four key areas:

• CSP Operator service to simplify cloud subscription management: This service handles the operational burden of managing cloud subscriptions so partners can maintain a clean, well-managed subscription base.

• A service portfolio that builds recurring revenue: xMonthly’s expansive service portfolio gives partners new, billable offerings to bring to existing clients.

• A six-month Business Applications adoption campaign: The campaign we provide gives partners a structured outreach and nurture program focused on Business Applications.

• And more marketing support that drives pipeline

Whether a partner wants to protect existing client relationships with deeper value or expand into new AI-adjacent revenue streams, this program provides the infrastructure to do all three.

xMonthly’s AI Assessment helps partners and clients both by providing a structured offering that gives a concrete picture of where AI fits into Microsoft environments.

Partners who want to lead deeper AI conversations with clients now have an offering to anchor those conversations around, mapping their current environments against the AI capabilities available to them.

For clients, the AI Assessment demonstrates how AI integrates within their existing infrastructure and what steps to take next.

Becoming an xMonthly agent opens the door to something new and substantive to bring to your next client conversation.

The AI Cloud Tour Builder, the AI Assessment, and the xMonthly Strategic Partnership program give partners a credible, professional, and immediately deployable way to lead with AI. Every day without a customized AI Cloud Tour and a clear AI strategy hands a competitor the chance to have the conversation you haven’t had yet.
