Partner Communities and Social Media

Leveraging partner ecosystems is not new.  Social Media has not reinvented the space.   Regardless of how you are experimenting with social media and partnering to drive customer value, I would recommend to not stray too far from basics.  Here are 3 rules I recommend:

  1. Never embarrass your partners in front of their customers
  2. Maintain a [highly] visible profile in your Partner’s income statement
  3. My Golden Rule:  Whether selling directly or through the channel, never let others define the value of your product.  Define a market disruptive “promise”, and then continually exceed expectations.
