3. Business Partner Ready Campaigns
What is Business Partner Ready?
Pre-packaged marketing campaigns, including strategy, plan, assets and offers
Fully customizable, including a landing page
Consistent IBM messaging
Translated versions (available upon request)
Available at no charge
These are pre-packaged campaigns that have been developed by IBM’s worldwide marketing teams and are made available to Partners at no cost.
The campaigns are built to provide a rapid return on investment, and include consistent messaging and compelling offers.
They are fully customizable. A typical campaign includes a guidance document, 3-4 customizable s, corresponding customer offers, customizable landing page text and telescript. All BPs have to do is customize and send to their clients and prospects.
The majority of campaigns are available in English, and some are in local languages. English campaigns can be made available in other languages. We handle this based on demand…so if you see a campaign that you’d like to use in another language, simply send an to our IBM Task will connect with the campaign owners and ask whether the campaign is available in the language you request, and if it is, it will be loaded into the console for your use…which typically takes about a week after receipt of files.
In any case, new campaigns are being loaded into the system on a weekly basis, so please check back regularly. 3

Developers are looking for a way to speed development and share assets internally.  They recognize the value of externalizing APIs but today they are using the majority of their APIs internally to help expedite projects and to better collaborate.
