Site Mission

The mission of the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Showplace is to create a clearinghouse and designation place that provides,

1. Enterprise decision-makers a free, easy-to-use online directory and repository of valuable information regarding the leading providers of SaaS solutions,

2. SaaS providers and enabling technology vendors a cost-effective method to increase their industry visibility, and generate quality sales leads.

In order to achieve these objectives, THINKstrategies has created numerous ways for SaaS providers and enabling technology vendors to enhance their visibility on the SaaS Showplace website. These include premium site placement and whitepaper links, as well as innovative new mechanisms such as video logs (“Vlogs”) and executive roundtables on timely topics.

THINKstrategies welcomes additional sponsorship suggestions beyond those provided below, and is prepared to create custom sponsorship programs that include multiple elements.

Target Audience/Market Penetration

The SaaS Showplace is aimed at three primary audiences,

1. Enterprise decision-makers seeking to identify the leading providers of SaaS solutions by application category,

2. SaaS provider and enabling technology vendors promote their solutions.

3. High-technology investors looking for innovative companies to fund.

In addition, the Showplace helps business and trade press reporters, industry analysts and others seeking to stay abreast of the growing number of players in the market and industry best practices.

THINKstrategies is committed to continue to expand the target audience and market penetration by creating additional alliances and partnerships, and by aggressively promoting the SaaS Showplace site via e-newsletters, press announcements and industry events.

In order to encourage maximum traffic to the site and visibility for the SaaS providers and enabling technology vendors listed on the site, visitors are not required to register to access or traverse the SaaS Showplace site. However, they can register to access additional resources within the Best Practices Portal.

In this way the Showplace is designed to enable visitors to immediately link to the SaaS providers and enabling technology vendors’ websites where the visitors can register whenever appropriate for relevant material.

This approach permits the SaaS providers and enabling technology vendors to generate and track visitor traffic and potential sales leads referred directly from the SaaS Showplace site.

In keeping with the Site Mission of providing an easy-to-use resource, SaaS Showplace site sponsorship opportunities have been packaged and priced to make it simple for SaaS providers and enabling technology vendors to select the right option to meet their marketing and sales objectives.
