Bringing your learning to life by accelerating your growth
We run a sales and support channel development business that’s dedicated to helping you grow and maximise your return on investment. We have a UK based multi-lingual call centre, in country market development and marketing localisation services on hand to deliver your programs of work efficiently and effectively.
Customers that switch to us are normally struggling to achieve results in a particular market or they want to expand quickly across multiple territories. Budget fluctuation is also a constant challenge, with uncertainty reining in investment.
We can achieve your targets on a more modest budget than you’d need to deliver the program of work yourselves.
Partner management
Bringing your learning to life by sharing your messageFull management of your partner network. We work with you strategically so you maintain a clear steer on the direction and output of your channel. We become entirely responsible for delivering the targets you establish.
We engage actively with country networks to provide the infrastructure and management of:
- License fee distribution; operational support
- Multi lingual support teams
- Certification exam development, distribution and centre support
- Courseware development, production and distribution, partnerships
- Instructor development programs and accreditation
- Partner business development and management
- Marketing and public relations campaigns and content
Support expansion of markets through leveraging training and certification network capacity

Bringing France and Germany on board meant a huge increase in the volume of courseware and, of course, new language requirements. KnowledgePoint’s methods mean we can be more agile and turn our services around that much quicker.

Demand generation
Bringing your learning to life by creating interestWe are always running the latest marketing campaign, local market development, localisation of materials and marketing automation to create end-user interest for our partner networks.
This can take the form of us delivering your campaign to the network in a territory or us developing a program of demand generation activities to reach your goals.
We achieve our best results when our program management team is in charge, our channel sales team and multi-lingual contact centre are driving interest with your messaging, and our market development manager is on the ground building bridges into key influencers and aggregation points.
Local market presence
We employ field based market development managers in countries all around the world to represent your interests face to face. These specialists are in place to accelerate channel development or new market entry by working with key influencers and aggregation points in the country.
They are expert at opening the doors with trade associations, membership bodies and influencers that add layers of trust and reach to your programmes.
Trusted industry specific advocacy
Each of our market development managers has a sector specialism like education, technology, design or building. They maintain a large, trusted network of contacts that we can bring to bear far faster than a standing start.
We also bring that intimate knowledge of the sector to your business, advising on the best and easiest routes to market.
