Channel Partners Blog
Everyone is talking about the cloud. But for channel partners, the only thing that’s of interest is how to make money selling it. The Cloud Services Track at the upcoming Spring 2010 Channel Partners Conference & Expo will offer some frank advice about selling hosted IP telephony as an entry point and the potential for cloud-based computing.
Sessions in this track will include:

There are all kinds of new opportunities popping up. Most SaaS companies have partner programs that you can apply to directly. I signed up for an affiliate network called Repfolio that allows anyone to apply to SaaS companies in the network as a referral partner. Worth checking out!
