GlobalWise Announces Its MarketCommand(TM) Launch

A Powerful, Simple Program to Drive Recurring Revenue for the Imaging Channel


COLUMBUS, OH--(Marketwired - Jan 2, 2014) - GlobalWise Investments, Inc. (OTCQB: GWIV) (OTCBB: GWIV) (the "Company") (www.GlobalWiseInvestments.com) and its wholly owned subsidiary Intellinetics, Inc., a provider of cloud-based and premise-based Enterprise Content Management ("ECM") systems in both the public and private sectors, today announced the launch of its new MarketCommand partner program.

MarketCommand is a program for dealers in the print and imaging channel that generates additional revenues from the SMB office automation market. MarketCommand packages the GlobalWise cloud-based IntelliCloud platform as a feature of the multi-function devices sold by dealers on the program. As a result, MarketCommand can increase partner revenue from stronger device sales, IntelliCloud activation fees and increasing recurring revenue from customers that utilize more than the initial capacity -- all without complexity in sales, operations, or service delivery

The MarketCommand program reflects a tremendous collaborative effort from our team. We gained in-depth feedback from our first generation industry partners to determine what business, technical, market positioning and service changes were needed to build a robust Intellinetics-based document solutions practice. Every aspect of MarketCommand reflects the cumulative feedback and analysis from this process.

The MarketCommand program delivers the simplicity our stakeholders were looking for in delivering document-centric business solutions as a feature of the multi-function devices they already sell. With MarketCommand, IntelliCloud's solutions catalog is available via configurable icons from the device panel. MarketCommand is initially being made available only to market leaders within the geographies served. We will begin on-boarding select partners in Q1 2014. Initial industry feedback has been very positive, and we anticipate expanding to a wider set of program partners in the coming months.
