At Gartner, I work within the SMB Technology Providers market, facilitating emerging, small & midsize vendors in seizing Gartner's extensive analyst community to achieve pre-determined business goals and address challenges that include:
- Revenue Growth - through new markets, products, industries
- Increasing Market Share
- Operational Management/Cost Management
- IPO
- Buyout
- Mergers & Acquisitions
I strive to understand the needs of my clients so that I can ensure they get the most value from Gartner. I use a similar approach for interesting SMB organisations considering entering a long term strategic relationship with Gartner. My approach is to understand whether there is a strong enough match between the direction your company is taking and the focus of Gartner’s analyst(s) to justify you formalizing a strategic relationship, by becoming a Gartner client.
