Sage Intacct and Sage X3 partners

LinkedIn marketing for Sage partners

Finance teams move to Sage Intacct for consolidation and reporting; manufacturers choose Sage X3 when generalist ERP runs out. Our writers and designers turn what your consultants know about both into a steady LinkedIn presence across the UK and US.

‘Moving to Sage Intacct this year?’ opens the company page post in this Sage graphic, followed by a ‘Sage Intacct readiness’ carousel. In the review panel, the Intacct terms and migration steps are marked as checked, and an analytics panel counts organic impressions.

“I just wanted to share that I’ve been really impressed with the work Alex is producing for several of our UK partners. The approach around multi-touch, multi-channel campaigns and the focus on more targeted, high-quality content is clearly delivering strong results.”

Who it's for

Resellers, accountants, trainers and developers in the Sage world

Sage’s partner world includes resellers, accountants delivering outsourced finance on Sage Intacct, trainers and consultants, and developers. Each earns differently, so each needs different LinkedIn content.

Your buyers

Finance directors; Group financial controllers; Outsourced CFOs; Non-profits; SaaS businesses; Manufacturers and distributors on X3

Business partners

Selling and implementing Sage Intacct, Sage X3 and the wider Sage range, with value-added services.

Accountant partners

Firms in the Sage Intacct Accountants Program delivering outsourced and virtual CFO work.

Training and service delivery partners

Training, consulting and managed services, certified in the Sage products they support.

Tech partners

Integrations and apps that connect Sage to payroll, CRM, POS and payables tools.

One Sage partner, three mismatched headlines. ‘Your trusted partner for every ERP project’ sits on its LinkedIn post, ‘Sage Intacct migration specialists’ is pitched in the deck and ‘Digital transformation for manufacturers’ is advertised on the stand, each link crossed out in red.
The problem

Sage partners going quiet on LinkedIn, and why

Three problems we keep finding, each one from a real client engagement.

1

Posting happens when someone has time

No cadence, no content plan and no quality control.

2

Every channel tells a different story

LinkedIn, sales collateral and event materials say slightly different things, so your delivery strength never comes through.

3

Technical buyers tune out marketing

IT directors and senior decision-makers are wary of anything that reads like a sales pitch.

What we manage

One team for your Sage practice’s LinkedIn

One team plans, writes, designs, publishes and reports, so your consultants stay on delivery.

01

Content shaped by your Sage products

Intacct moves, multi-entity reporting, X3 for manufacturers and the training or managed services you offer.

02

Writing from consultant interviews

We interview your consultants and write the posts. Nobody on your team has to draft anything.

03

Design: carousels and visuals

Carousels and graphics designed to a professional standard, with optional video where it adds value.

04

Publishing and reporting

Scheduling, a monthly report and a quarterly review of what to change.

The problem

Strong delivery and IFS expertise weren’t reflected in the firm’s marketing. LinkedIn, sales collateral and event materials told slightly different stories, and there was no publishing schedule, approval process or reporting.

What we'd write about

Sage topics we’d put on the shortlist

A first shortlist for discussion. An accountancy delivering outsourced CFO work and an X3 reseller would keep very different halves of it.

1

Is it time to move to Sage Intacct?

The signs a finance team has outgrown its current system, and what your consultants check before a Sage Intacct project starts.

2

Consolidating many entities without waiting for close

Sage Intacct automates consolidation for two entities or hundreds. A consultant shows how a group report comes together before month end.

3

When generalist ERP stops working for manufacturers

Sage X3 is aimed at businesses that have outgrown generalist ERP. Your team explains the production and stock signals that trigger the move.

4

Outsourced finance on Sage Intacct, explained

For accountant partners: how your team runs a client’s finance function on Sage Intacct and what the client still owns.

How it works

Your first 90 days

Your consultant signs off every technical claim before anything goes live.

1

Kickoff and consultant interviews

We learn your services, your buyers and the projects worth talking about.

2

Content pillars and the first month’s calendar

You approve the plan before anything is written.

3

Writing and technical sign-off

Your nominated consultant checks the technical claims in every post.

4

Publishing at the agreed cadence

Set by your scope. One ERP consultancy we work with posts twice a week.

5

Monthly report and quarterly review

What moved, what to change and next quarter’s topics.

A month of Sage content at two posts a week, led by ‘Sage Intacct readiness’ on schedule. Lower down, the support handover post is in review, and the same post appears in a sign-off card awaiting the consultant.

How do you handle UK and US differences across the Sage range?
Can your posts mention our Sage partner status and certifications?
Year-end is our busiest period. Will this take our consultants away from clients?
