eBlast: IBM XIV Storage System
Steve Knapp wrote this eblast for Arrow Enterprise Computing Solutions, a multi-billion dollar distributor of IBM products and services. The eblast is part of a package of customizable materials that Arrow ECS provides to IBM business partners for marketing purposes. A typical package includes an eblast, data sheet, event invite, postcard, calling guide, and quick reference guide. Steven Knapp has provided all the copywriting for a number of these packages.
