Our marketing and analysis plan created by The Partner Marketing Group is something I feel every partner should invest in. I review the plan and recommendations every day and it has caused us to rethink and refocus our marketing strategy and take a phased approach to get back on track with a clear finish line. I appreciate all the hard work and detailed evaluation. It has allowed us to finally have our marketing organized with a strategic plan that fits our business.

For almost a decade we have had great success working with The Partner Marketing Group. They serve as our Virtual Marketing Director and have created several new pieces of content for us over the years. Our recent investment in their Annual Content Pack has generated more traffic and leads than we ever had. In just the first 7 months of 2020, we added 11 new customers and transitioned 4 existing customers from on-premise applications to cloud-based applications. Our experience and results have been outstanding!
