Pixitmedia has launched a new partner programme to support its technology and reseller partners.
The initiative offers partners support, product training, sales guidance, and access to pixitmedia labs to test the effectiveness of a customer solution “off-site”, so to avoid disrupting an operating studio pipeline.
Paul Cameron, global MD, pixitmedia said: “Our global growth strategy centres around enabling and growing our partner base so that they can be an extension of us.”

Never.no integrates WhatsApp into its Cloud platform, Bee-On
Audience engagement company Never.no has integrated WhatsApp, improved graphics timeline management, advanced Twitter trends and debuted a new user-support platform for its Cloud-based social and content management platform, Bee-On.
The new features will offer producers of digital and broadcast content new ways to reach and engage with audiences.
“Different generations are using a wide range of platforms to communicate with friends, loved-ones, colleagues and brands, so we wanted to ensure that Bee-On users were able to interact with their target audience on those very platforms,” said Scott Davies, Never.no’s CEO.
“Traditionally, broadcasters and brands run competitions via SMS, email and phone-ins, now WhatsApp integration will enhance those campaigns, enabling entrants to easily interact using a platform they use daily, and receive instant personalised responses, en masse” added Davies.
Following the recent introduction of Twitter trends to Bee-On, the feature now offers a more in-depth analytical tool enabling users to investigate and manage the most influential Tweets within a seven-day timeline.
