By now, channel partners have hit their stride in delivering cloud migrations, security solutions, and managed services. Yet, one lucrative opportunity remains underutilized: offshore software development teams. While offshore development is both essential and increasingly popular, many channel partners fail to land this opportunity by not presenting offshore development as a strategic benefit to their current clients.
The key differentiator for offshore development is not only outsourcing but creating an environment for clients to scale, innovate, and optimize; all necessary when pushing digital transformation initiatives. Here’s how adding offshore development to your service portfolio can free up growth potential for your business and that of your clients—and how to identify where those opportunities lie in client conversations.
