      One of the things that I like about having a tech "layer" between the buyers and the sellers is that things like "there is no budget, I'm getting a scope of your product for multiple customers and just need the general details" are all that the vendor can get.

          One thing I have seen a few companies do with the "Info Wall" [I like that term, I'm stealing it], is have an opt out at the top. For folks that are just curious... have a "Click Here to Download" button / link / something that says they don't have to fill out the form.

          If I like the info, then I'll come back and am more likely to fill out said form.

          Another thing that's been touched on, but is very important (especially for an MSP / ITSP) is be honest.

            @thwr One of my best experiences was when I was demoing hardware with a salesperson and I asked some questions that he didn't know how to answer. So he texted/emailed his technical staff and I had the answers to the questions before the end of our demo. He admitted he didn't know, or possibly understand my question, and immediately sought assistance. Not making something up and not misleading me was very cool.

            perfectly ok

            On the flip side I've had vendors have make stuff up until weeks later when more technical people are involved and it ends up being a waste of time for everyone in the discussion. That's not cool.

            exactly

              If you google search how to make a techie buy your _____ brand or product or service

              The article on darait.co.uk is top of the search. Somehow no one else has written about this with those keywords before. Really surprised.

                  @aaron Yeah maybe it's region targeted for the UK.

                  Still, if the article appears at least once on at least 1 platform. Not a bad thing.

                    Pretty likely.

                      Looks like the company failed. The domain is gone.
