The mood is informal, with the emphasis on exploring the issues at the top of your agenda. There are short talks from specialists on relevant topics – everything from sales incentives to compliance issues, from channel marketing automation through to co-branding best practice.
The main event is the panel discussion on channel sales and marketing alignment, where delegates can pose questions. Then, after the event, you will have access to research and content arising from the discussions and analysis papers. The aim is to build an active and productive real-world community of channel marketing professionals.
2022 is all about Channel Sales & Marketing Alignment. Once again Channel Mechanics is delighted to Sponsor The Channel Meet Up when it returns to London. So, why not join us for what promises to be an interactive day of networking and sharing of best practice…and the best part, it’s free!
