His fortunes change when he adopts SUSE. He is able to serve customers competitively. He leverages the best of cloud and open source to surpass customer requirements and win their trust.
He is able to innovate and bring new offerings. He ushers in a new era of innovation, customer service and growth.

Identifiable Hero, established as the good guy, associated with the audience (by saying "You")
Is that not enough? Why must running your business be harder than ever?
Frustration build-up/ Perplexed, dejected hero
Why? The Science behind this element:
Establish the hero as an underdog, struggling; the audience should start feeling a low emotion
You already had demanding customers, asking for ever-higher performance and functionality
An angry customer
Why? The Science behind this element:
Add external stakes (customer satisfaction, business success) to internal stakes (struggle)

And now, new competitors are threatening your business,
promising the world in uptime, SLAs and performance,
and adding new functionality,
all at a lower price.
