Networking distributor Rocom has introduced a new reseller initiative aimed at helping VARs become more effective in the fight for market share and profile.


Its new marketing programme will be backed up by a 20-strong team including six marketing specialists, seven designers, a web-design team and a digital photography studio.

 

The bureau will provide expertise and advice in the production of brochures, websites and exhibition displays, among other things.

 

Rocom managing director Richard Carter believed the new services set would play a part in helping dealers through tough times.

 

“In times of economic slowdown many companies choose to downsize their marketing operation; this is absolutely the wrong thing to do. As times tighten we aim to help our resellers,” he said.

 

The new marketing support unit forms one of 11 pillars of AT Communications-owned Rocom’s distribution strategy. Dealers can also benefit from a range of services such as network management and e-business support.
