- We combine decades of channel marketing best practices with proven technology approaches – for the world’s largest brands. We’re probably one of the largest players in this market you’ve never heard of….
- #Channel Chiefs Follow along online at www.gage.com/download What will I learn from attending your session? In this best-practices sharing session, Mark will reveal insights and ideas on over two decades of managing channel and indirect sales campaigns. What are the best ways to synchronize your channel marketing to drive true advocacy? (Hint: It’s not just about providing monetary incentives.) What is the best way to combine channel promotions to drive engagement without randomizing your partners? Mark will share examples of these combinations working in real life scenarios. How do you synchronize channel marketing campaigns across 6,674 partners that range from two persons organizations to multi-billion dollar channel partners? What are the best practices to leverage and optimize MDF? How much autonomy should you give your channel partners to represent your brand and what do your channel partners really need to help sell and market for you? This session will be based on actual examples and data from global channel campaigns including a focused discussion on how to identify potential within your channel based on data analytics. A case study will be shared that showcases how one firm eliminated their random marketing programs and integrated into one, synchronized program. The results: their existing, mature channel sales volume rose by 10.4% YoY while reducing their marketing spend. Attend Mark’s session to understand how this firm went “all in” on channel platforms to eliminate the random acts of channel marketing and set the standard for global best practices.
