The QuarkAlliance™ authorized partner program is the enrollment level for organizations that want a higher level of exposure — both to Quark internally and to customers. As a partner, you can use the Quark® authorized partner logo in your marketing collateral and on your Web site. You will also benefit from co-marketing opportunities such as shared booth presence at trade shows when available. We have produced a number of successful campaigns alongside our authorized partners, including: 7000 Reasons to Upgrade, Design and Print  Bundles, Training Provider exposure, and I Love Printers Campaign. Enrollment fee: $495

Community membership benefits — and a lot more

QuarkAlliance authorized partners are valued and key players on Quark's team. Our authorized partners enjoy all the benefits of the community membership in addition to the benefits listed below.

Complimentary software

Each enrolling QuarkAlliance authorized partner — in a qualifying program — will receive one full license of Quark software appropriate to the member's enrollment. This is a full not-for-resale version, not a time-limited or feature-limited sample — and yours to keep during and beyond your enrollment.

Software discounts

For software needs beyond your complimentary license, QuarkAlliance authorized partners in qualifying programs also receive a 30% discount on up to five additional licenses. Contact your program specialist to place an order for upgrades or full versions of any Quark desktop product.

Co-op marketing invitations

Authorized partners are first in line when we enter the planning stages of any campaign or event. Our partners have been included in worldwide events such as the Quark Symposium series, the 7,000 Reasons to Upgrade promotion, and the Print Performance Pack and Design Inspiration Pack offers. Beginning in 2008, we embarked on a worldwide campaign directed at promoting authorized training providers. Millions of customers worldwide have received information about partner offers and all at very low costs or no cost to the QuarkAlliance authorized partner.

Escalated technical-support or quality-assurance testing incidents

We know how critical it is that your Quark software runs at top performance at all times. We will ensure that you remain successful by providing you with priority access to both our quality-assurance testing facilities and to our technical-support staff.

Product training access

Quark provides many training opportunities for our members. In addition to developer camps, partner camps, classroom training, and online resources, we also hold Train the Trainer webcasts for our authorized training provider partners. At the close of the TTT webcast, we issue a certification test. Passing grades will earn your center a Quark Certified Trainer certificate. Check with your program specialist to reserve your seat today.

Additional business opportunities

Opportunities abound at Quark for authorized partners and as a QuarkAlliance partner, you are notified each time we find an opportunity that would highlight your products, skills, or services in a winning event or campaign for Quark's customers. Your program specialist acts as your advocate within other Quark departments — actively seeking exposure for your offerings.
