Channel Partner Engagement Solutions by Maritz

Research confirms exactly what we suspected ➡️ 91% of channel sellers say incentives positively impact their motivation. The goal isn't just to run an incentive program - it's to get great results from it. Channel programs are powerful for helping brands maximize market impact and transform logos into memorable landmarks, BUT... Programs only deliver results when they're built on three essential performance activators: 📊 Data ⚛️ Science 🎨 Design These pillars don't change - no matter the industry, business, or program size or maturity - because they're at the core of every strong strategy. We use this framework to power every program we build, and we've turned it into a guide to help you unlock better results, too.

Behavioral science tells us a lot about how people make decisions. 🧠 As emotional creatures, our feelings guide us first. Then, we move to logic. This matters for how your channel partners view your program, and here's why: When partners think of your brand, you want good feelings to follow. Your participants should remember the awesome results from selling your products and your impressive reward experiences. Your ability to deliver on the perks you've promised is how participants reconcile the head vs. the heart. Ideally, the two align. The ultimate goal of every loyalty strategy is to be the first brand on partners' minds and the easiest to promote. That's why we've put together a guide to building more mutually beneficial partnerships (a.k.a. the hidden currency for strong, loyal relationships and healthier programs). In it, you'll find great insights for boosting loyalty and tips to maximize shared success. 📖 Download our e-book, "Unlocking the Hidden Currency of Channel Partner Relationships" here: https://bit.ly/41TLfVD
