As a supplier, you provide content to your partners to build, mix, and promote business engagement and conversation. Collateral is meant to support and facilitate the promotion of a company, product, or service. Content comes in many forms: audio, text, video, images, and more. ZiftMarcom checks for assets that are uploaded to prevent unnecessary duplication when uploading files. The system will prompt you to select an existing file or continue with the upload.
Library content is used by your partners and is found under the Browse Collateral tab in Zift123. Partners can preview, download, and customize content available in the view. All content may not be available to all partners. Not all content is available for preview or customization. The supplier will determine what content is available to partners when creating content.
