The pages in this area explain how the
Gnosis Affiliate Program partners with independent
consultants in order to design, sell, implement, train, and
support solutions built on Gnosis technology and services.
The program is designed to support
industry professionals and independent consultants who wish
to utilize Gnosis as a cornerstone technology for their
clients. Connect4 provides structured assistance to
affiliates in pre-sales, sales and post-sales environments
in order to help ensure the success of each affiliate
engagement involving Gnosis products and services.
The program currently consists of
three options. An affiliate may elect to participate in one
or more of the following programs:
- Referral Affiliate
- Sales Affiliate
- Value Added Reseller (VAR)

Each option has its benefits,
requirements for accreditation (except for #1), and
responsibilities outlined in more detail in the following

Sales Affiliate Summary
The Sales Affiliate option is
available to those who have a solid track record of sales or
can demonstrate excellent comprehension and application of
the sales process. For seasoned consultants and other
professionals, this option sets the stage to sell an
advanced set of database technology tools, processes and
support services which are designed to empower organizations
with internet-enabled and integrated database technologies.
A registered Sales Affiliate also may
have access to the Connect4 lead pool – a list of targeted
organizations ranging from “unqualified leads” to “hot”
referrals.” Connect4 provides marketing, collateral, sales,
