David Bellini shares some advice on how partners can better brand their businesses.

“There are many ways to brand your business: website, business cards, brochures, social media, and more. One opportunity you may have overlooked is ON the products and services you provide. Are you driving your brand or are you allowing vendors to promote themselves to your clients? There are plenty of white label solutions available for you to rebrand with your own logo and colours; make sure you take them into serious consideration when you are choosing the suite of solutions for your IT practice. Choose channel friendly white label offerings, which allow you to build YOUR brand and protect your clients”

Heather K. Margolis discusses why social media tools are so important in helping to spread news about marketing events and campaigns.

“LinkedIn should play a huge part in any campaign you are funding. Do your partners know how to use it? Make sure you have the resources to hand them so they can post out events, promotions, e-mail campaigns through LinkedIn. It can be a webinar or a ‘how-to’ guide but it has to be something they can use over and over again.”
