Traditionally these companies have looked for new products high in demand with excellent growth potential and sales and marketing support. Others, particularly in the data channel take a more reactive approach. Trusted by their customers, IT specialists are led by customer demand and approach new services as solutions to problems. One product does not suit all and the range of solutions available and recommendations from peers become important factors when considering a new supplier. Typically, a conversation takes place internally to agree to proceed and recommended suppliers are interviewed. Commercials are then agreed with the winning provider and solutions are quoted. If the deal is won, the companies work together to install and support the solution throughout the lifetime of the contract. Recommendations from trusted sources are essential, as so much is as stake on this first order. If it works, the customer often becomes a reference site and the product becomes part of the portfolio.  ![add_products.png](https://info.jola.co.uk/hs-fs/hubfs/add_products.png?width=347&height=112&name=add_products.png) In every case, companies are looking for experienced suppliers with keen pricing who they can trust with a valued customer to understand their requirements and deliver their part of the overall solution. It is often a quick learning curve for all involved and building a partnership that works for all parties is key to ensuring the best customer experience.
