Perks eBook: Partner Profiling and Segmentation Now Available from Perks | Channel
Miami, Florida (PRWEB) August 04, 2016 -- Now more than ever vendors need to have an effective methodology in place to ensure that they are recruiting partners who have the potential to thrive in a marketplace affected by Cloud-based solutions, a reduction in technology partners and demand for genuine business relationships. Perks l Channel, a premier provider of channel incentive programs, has authored an eBook, Partner Profiling and Segmentation, the Foundation for Effective Partner Management, discussing how to cultivate partner relationships that help vendors achieve revenue and market share goals.
Readers will learn how to create a partner profile and how to use it to select the right partners, receive instructions for using a value scoring tool to rank partners, and pick up five golden rules for partner profiling and segmentation.
“The lack of a rigorous and best practice partner segmentation seems odd when considering the millions of dollars technology vendors invest in partner recruitment, enablement, and incentives,” said Claudio Ayub, Chief Channel Strategist at Perks |Channel. “Some estimates predict that vendors will only be able to 'bring along' 20% - 30% of partners and will have to part ways with the rest – leaving an enormous hole to be filled through the recruitment of new partners. Hence, vendors need to re-assess the tools and methodologies they employ to identify those partners with the right attributes and business models,” added Ayub.
Partner Profiling and Segmentation, the Foundation for Effective Partner Management is available for free download in the Perks | Channel resource library.
