Moving into Pre-sales / Design Network role

Hi guys,

Ive just had a interview for a network design based role. Currently, im in the technical side but have done some design work for projects i work on. The company are looking to take someone on with a 6 month contract. The role is 100% design based that is something im not entirely used to, so it would be great experience and a good challenge for me as it covers R&S, wireless, UC and security.

Could anyone who works in a similar position make any recommendations to make the transition smooth? books, links, do's and donts etc would all be much appreciated.

This contract isnt in the bag but i have a good shot and would like as much of a chance as possible.

Get familiar with the products you'll be offering. Make sure you understand the quirks/limitations. That's where presales typically falls short.

thanks dude, thats a familiar feeling and one that our guys at my current company fall down on many times!
