Do you think of your partners as competitors or a team
working together to conquer the competition? Your view
may be affecting the effectiveness of your team. Yes, your
   dealer network is your team. They are or can be an
organism that works as an entity, learning from failures as
  well as successes. This article will help you build your
                      partner team.
Do you do your part in moving your network forward? Do
you foster the sharing of stories of success? What works?
 Who is buying? How long do your partners work with a
 prospect before getting an order? Computer technology
can help you build your team faster and easier than word
                        of mouth.
Are your partners surviving on service work? If they are,
perhaps you should be helping? Remember, Demosthene's
motto from 338 BC "He who fights and runs away will live
to fight another day." Well, the economy is getting better,
 and when business picks up, you want to have a strong
    dealer network, poised for growth. As the economy
   continues to grow, you will be really happy with your
  toughened partners who are willing to and able to sell
                       your product.
1. Call your partners and solicit some unique sales success
 stories. (or theatrical failures) 2. Package a partner sales
 story every month and include it on your partner home
  page. (attribute the story to your partner if possible) 3.
Get engineering to put together some topical service sales
 opportunity every month. 4. Change your partner home
page every month! (give your partners a reason to return)
Perhaps you should even consider giving a small prize, like
  a customized windbreaker for the most inspiring sales
   story of the month. In other words, encourage your
partner network to share stories with your staff. Speaking
of your staff, you should designate a staff person for your
partners to call or email with their stories. Everyone likes
 to have a leadership roll, and set someone up to be the
    lead person for your partner home page. Get your
      partners talking about their collective strength.
Many years ago, while I was in college, I attempted to
return a very expensive clock chip that I managed to blow
       up. I guess I had improperly used a piece of test
  equipment, and the ground was not correct, turned the
 chip into smoke. Being a financially challenged student, I
    mailed the cinders into the manufacturer said it was
  defective. Well, I got a real nice letter from the head of
engineering asking to see my circuit diagram, and offering
to set me straight on how to use the chip. I'm certain that
     he would still laugh about some kid calling his chip
 defective. The entire physics department got a laugh out
    of my letter, and I'm sure that his staff did the same.
 Sometimes those crazy stories make a sales pitch where
   reality is better than fiction. While I did not get a free
replacement chip, I sure got a genuine offer of assistance,
