Something that would probably help a *lot* (and get some publicity for
yourself and your shop while you're at it :) is to do up a short presentation
or paper discussing what the total aggregate payoff ends up being.  Being
able to point at "This company spent $yyyK doing X, Y and Z, and achieved a
total net savings of $x.xM/year" is quite useful when trying to explain to
other sites why they should clean up their networks....
