INSIGHTS OF THE DAY

The Importance of Personal Relationships and Support in Channel Success - Frank Rauch: “I think it's a lot more than building your LinkedIn. It really is. I mean, that's part of it, but, you know, I think when I look at Joe and when I look at Dave, I can literally cite the day, the year, the month, where those relationships were strengthened and oftentimes they're strengthened in bad times. Rather than in good times, oftentimes the sky's falling and basically if you're there and you're willing to stand with the partner, absolutely. That helps.”
