Channel Leaders and program owners are faced with an ever growing number of variables in today’s channel eco-system. First of all, the challenge of delivering an effective partner program is greater than ever. Compound this with the fact that winning partner mindshare in a crowded marketplace requires new and innovative methods of partner engagement.
All of this takes investment. As a result, vendors investing in their channel are always striving for better ways to report on how these investments are performing. Being in a position to measure partner performance requires the pulling together of many different data points from multiple systems. Examples include revenue or sales achievements, training, deal registrations, open opportunities and many more. Once centralized, these KPI’s need to be presented in a meaningful way to both the partner and the Vendor to track and share partner performance. This is where Partner Performance Dashboards shine for tomorrow’s channel.
Hear from channel leaders on how they are creating competitive advantage and winning partner mindshare through the use of partner performance dashboards. Channel Mechanics VP Sales John McArdle will be joined by Jeremy Butt, SVP, International and Strategic Alliance Partners for RingCentral, Balaji Subramanian, Global Channel Chief, SVP Channel Sales at IGEL and Kenneth Fox, CEO of Channel Mechanics as they discuss Partner Performance Dashboards for tomorrow’s channel eco-system.
