While SharedVue products differ in how they function, they have one
thing in common: maximizing your company’s presence and your
partners’ marketing capabilities via the web. Beyond that, which
one is right for you? Consult the chart below to compare the products

 |
Overview |
Customized
Enterprise content automatically updated on channel partner existing
websites. |
Automated
marketing campaigns for your channel partners. |
Content |
Mix
of existing and syndication-specific content.
Content can be incorporated from existing web resources (copy,
images, videos, podcasts) and combined with new content generated
specifically for use on multiple partner websites.
|
Driven through
co-branded corporate & channel partner microsite or Partner
Consoles.
Existing marketing content from the Enterprise is pushed to
end-customers via Channel Partners. This is done through either
public microsites or private partner consoles. |
Product
Focus |
Relevant Web
content and information designed to attract visitors and convert
them into qualified leads.
SharedVue focuses the syndicated content to inform users about
products and solutions at their own pace – gathering lead information
where possible. |
Information
pushed to end users as marketing materials to stimulate demand & inform.
Partners communicate directly with customers on a routine basis
about new content additions (new products, promotions, events,
etc) with automated marketing campaigns – tracking responses
and customizing marketing materials accordingly. |
How
is it used? |
Incorporates
into existing partner websites.
Syndicated content is placed within existing partner websites
using a few lines of code. Updates from the Enterprise are seen
automatically, and the partner never has to change the code. |
Partners are each
given their own microsite.
Each partner is given a method of automating marketing campaigns,
either a public Microsite (if they have no existing website)
or a private Partner Console (unseen by consumers). Users have
a more focused experience viewing and interacting with new-media
and traditional marketing content. |
Who
has control? |
Partner controls
the context of the content while the Enterprise controls the
content itself.
Since the content is incorporated into their existing website,
partners have control over the general “look and feel” of the
content. Enterprise admins have control over messaging and integrity. |
Enterprise
has control over the look and feel.
Since partners are utilizing marketing materials the Enterprise
has created, the Enterprise has control over all aspects of the
content. Partners are able to co-brand marketing materials if
given the option. |
Customization |
Customization
and control through Partner & Admin Consoles.
Partners can login to their Partner Console to view metrics,
lead information and utilize content customization features.
Enterprise content owners use an Admin Console to monitor aggregate
metrics and evaluate overall syndication success. |
Customer management
through a Partner Profile.
Partners only have as much access as needed to customize marketing
content. Their focus is on building a customer community, managing
communications to customers, and creating & nurturing leads
into sales. |
Involvement |
Partners
can be hands-off.
Once the syndication code is added to a partner’s website they
can simply let all the content updates happen automatically if
they choose. Alternatively, they can utilize the Partner Profile
to customize content. |
Ideal for proactive
partners with good customer connections.
Partners are responsible for keeping customer lists up-to-date
and overseeing communications sent to them via new and traditional
marketing methods. |
