As Alliance and VAR Program Manager for National Instruments, I define partnering strategies, develop partnering practices, and work with NI Alliance Partners and Value-added Resellers to promote their products and services. I have nearly 15 years experience in partner development. In the earlier 1990s, I served as LabVIEW Product Marketing Manager for 5 ½ years; prior to that, I worked as an applications engineer. I earned my B.S. in electrical engineering with honors from The University of Texas at Austin in 1988.
Building Stronger Partners Blog
Fostering better business practices
Dear Mr.Jack Barber
This is Ramkumar from Pioneers Technical Systems, NI’s Distributor in Saudi Arabia.
This blog is really helpful for NI Alliance Partners at different levels , in building their NI based System Integration business. Some important things I have noticed are understanding How NI can be leveraged for partner’s business, What to expect from NI and how NI can help in your business development.
I have met you in India, during the CSIA audit of Apna Technologies & Solutions. I was the Sales manager then with the same company.
Now I have taken up this new assignment in Saudi Arabia with PTS. I am aspiring to build PTS as a Strong Alliance Partner of NI in this region.
Shall be in regular touch with your blogs.
Thanks & Regards
Ramkumar
