For IT distributors
Go-to-market programs for IT distributors, with end-customer demand routed to the reseller best placed to close it and the deal registered to you.
Overview
A through-channel program is built back from the partner's reps, so the handover is designed before the campaign. We agree the routing rules and the deal registration with your partner team first. Each lead is routed to the reseller whose customer base and technical capability fit the account, and the deal is registered to you from the first touch. The reseller's rep opens the call with the buying trigger and the stakeholder map in hand. You see the same record as the partner: the account, the trigger, the partner it went to, and the stage it reached.
Common challenges we solve
A list your partners left uncalled
If past campaigns produced a list your partners left uncalled, each account here enters a campaign with a buying signal behind it: a research surge, a renewal window, or a vendor evaluation.
A report with no pipeline
Your program dashboard shows the leads generated, the pipeline created, and the activity in progress, by partner and by campaign. You can show a vendor what its funds produced.
Partners that sign but do not sell
Partners are profiled by customer base, technical capability, and vendor overlap before recruitment, and activation campaigns run on their behalf. The dashboard shows which partners produced pipeline this quarter.
A generalist in the channel
Our founder was Chief Revenue Officer at one of Europe's largest IT distributors, and we are a Microsoft Solutions Partner. Deal registration is set in the program design before the first campaign.
