Because Portals are curated and easy to navigate, they allow sales teams to find images, video and other content at the speed of business. If an unexpected request comes up in the middle of a sales call, no problem – sales reps can find and share persuasive images while the customer is still on the phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Project photos are often critical to making the sale,” explains Krista Short, marketing director at modular construction company \u003Ca href=\"\u002Fcustomers\u002Ffalcon-structures\u002F\">Falcon Structures\u003C\u002Fa>. Prior to using Canto, finding the right image was such a hassle at Falcon, it was starting to interfere with the sales process. Now, the most compelling photos of past projects are at sales reps’ fingertips. “We make sure that everything the sales team needs is in the Portal,” says Krista. “It works really well for us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"toc-2--2-help-retailers-promote-your-brand-and-products\">2.

Of course, so do their competitors. So how can brands stand out from the crowd and ensure their products are the ones that end up in the spotlight? Canto Portals provide retailers with an easy, reliable source of product images – making them the first place they’ll go to grab what they need.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“An REI-type store might carry 20 of our products and need imagery to put up on their website,” explains Jeff Williamson, creative producer at the iconic boot brand \u003Ca href=\"\u002Fcustomers\u002Fdanner\u002F\">Danner\u003C\u002Fa>. “Instead of photographing the boots themselves, they’ll just pull it from our library.”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"toc-3--3-give-external-partners-access-to-everything-they-need-and-nothing-they-don-t\">3.

Portals offer a convenient way to wall off parts of your content collection. That way, external collaborators have space to explore and find great content themselves – without having to email back and forth every time they need an image or design file.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">“Anyone can go into the Portal to find what they need,” says Brandon Perry, co-founder and CMO of Island Brands USA. Now, content produced by Island Brands’ external partners always matches the look and feel the brand wants to project. “There’s brand integrity in this,” explains Chris Edington, the company’s creative director. “Anybody who interacts with our brand from the moment they get this link is always going to have the correct logo and approved photography.”\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"toc-4--4-create-press-kits-journalists-will-love\">4.
