Result: Meaningful revenue generated in the education market through partners. Thousands of students and hundreds of schools utilized the product in their music curriculum.
Distribution Partnerships
A small company primarily focused on product development did not have the resources to distribute the product broadly.
We helped them partner with multiple high-tech firms (Dell, Lenovo, HP, Asus, Acer, Arm), music dealers (Guitar Center, Sam Ash) and app stores (Google, Apple, Microsoft) through preloads, free trials and promotions.
Result: Created significant distribution of product resulting in millions of impressions and hundreds of thousands of trials of the product
Direct Sales
A small company with reseller distribution as their primary revenue generator wanted to complement their existing sales channel with direct sales.
We created a store within their product and on their company website to generate direct sales. We utilized best in class SEO, SCO, SEM to drive success.
Result: Increased direct sales from less than 10% of revenue to more than 50% of revenue without alienating the existing resellers
