Get Great Support
Our DMP3 opportunity provides a customized partner solution designed to meet the unique requirements of your business and your clients. We take your success seriously and understand what it takes to make your customers happy.
We provide you with all of the assistance that we would provide a retail customer. We also provide the printing and the shipping of the order. However, you do your own ordering through our secure, fully automated, self-service web site and then conduct your transaction with your client offline. You also provide service of your own client accounts, including payment collection. We do not have contact with your clients. We do not provide self-service ordering directly to your clients through a private label site.
We provide:
- Partner sales training-- Our sales and marketing professionals will provide training tools and materials to you or your sales team on how to sell effectively and deliver the value that your customers deserve.
- Industry Resources--We support our partners via comprehensive tools and resources including, success stories, product announcements, industry news, statistical reports, white papers, newsletters, templates, postal primers, online calculators, tracking tools, etc.
- Expert Technical support-- Partners receive responsive support from our professional marketing and technical experts. You don't have to be an expert in printing and mailing -you can rely on us for that!
- Great Value-- PMi offers a large selection of full-color printing products with the fast turnaround time and great prices.
- Bill to Ship To Options-- We will ship orders directly to your customer in an unmarked package without an invoice or any promotional material.
Pricing
DMP3 pricing is wholesale pricing and is around 30% lower than our retail price, providing you with the opportunity to maximize your profits. Your earnings will be based on the prices that you establish for your own clients, which you would generally set at fair market value (depending upon your location, this is between 130-150%).
DMP3 pricing cannot be found anywhere on our website. This is for the protection of our current partners. Once your account is accepted and activated, you will be able to view the partner prices once you login.
Confidentiality
We will make no effort to directly solicit business from your clients. In addition, if you choose to have us ship directly to your clients, these products will arrive in generic packaging. However, PMi's products and services are advertised through a variety of channels and we can make no guarantee that your client will not discover us through these or other means, but would only see our retail pricing.
