Something BIG is coming…

This year, ScanSource is making a big investment in our partners and it’s called SUMO. SUMO is the channel’s first online network designed to help technology companies form partnerships. What do I mean when I say “technology companies”?  I’m talking about resellers, integrators, ISV’s, manufacturers and software companies. To put this another way, it’s kind of like a Match.com for technology solution providers. The goal is to help YOU extend your reach into new markets and geographies by partnering with others. The trick, is to tell a story about the niche that you play in and make your company attractive to others.  In a subsequent phase of SUMO, we will open the site up to end users and make investments to push customers to the site so they can find companies like yours. You heard me correctly, we’re going to use this network to push you leads! Stay tuned for more information but for now, I’d recommend putting some thought into what your profile will look like on SUMO!
