Develop Channel Partners Business and Relationships Effectively

For organizations that use indirect channels sales partners for all or part of their revenues, Channel Partner Managers (CPMs) play an essential part of those companies’ success. Unfortunately, in working with our clients, we find that the role of the CPM is often defined too vaguely. Without clear guidance, a CPM will spend too much of their time simply reacting to partner requests, instead of working proactively to develop and maximize channel partner sales results.

Key Areas Of Content:

Channel Partner Managers can improve revenues from integrators, distributors, resellers, dealers and other sales channels, by identifying, recruiting and onboarding the right partners. The Channel Partner Management methodology provides methods and tools to help Channel Partner Managers evaluate potential partner candidates, and to determine where to focus to ensure a smooth and effective onboarding process, enabling partners to become productive rapidly.

Partners use a variety of go-to-market methods – selling to, through or with solution providers, or some hybrid thereof – requiring different types of joint planning and program development. The Channel Partner Management methodology includes planning tools and templates, which can be tuned for different types of partnership programs, to ensure clear identification of goals and expectations, rules of engagement and joint activities for achieving desired results.

To grow channel sales results, Channel Partner Managers must interact with partners in ways that create mutual value and raise the level of relationship over time. However, they must do this through influence, rather than through direct authority – this creates unique challenges. The Channel Partner Management program includes refined methods and techniques for preparing and executing partner coaching and development dialogues, and for managing performance of joint partnership plans, in ways that provide value to both the solution provider and the partner.
