Channel Engagement
Audit / Strategy
As a technology vendor, gaining access to a volume of clients is one the key success factors to the launch of your particular product. With only a finite amount of internal sales resource, focussing these resources on your priority clients, and using the Channel to access broader sales opportunities can expedite the success of your product and drive substantial revenue growth.
Identifying the right channel partners however can be complex. With 6,000 potential UK IT and Telecoms Channel Partners, as well as a variety of Distribution partners, it can be time consuming and resource sapping to find that perfect partner who can successfully embrace and represent your product to its target market sectors. Understanding the proposition, not just to the end client, but also to the channel partner can be difficult to achieve and slow down your successful launch.
