TECHNOLOGY
Partner program experience
The tech industry operates at a breakneck pace. To keep up, those in the technology vertical need the right channel marketing solutions to effectively work with and engage their distributed ecosystem of resellers, distributors, MSPs, advocates, VARs, or more simply put, their transacting and non-transacting indirect sellers.
Empowering partners begins with designing programs that are efficient and effective, for you, the technology brand, and your distributed partners. Successful programs are those that drive growth, fund utilization, and partner engagement.

OUR WORK FOR TECH CLIENTS
Program Designed to Stop Fund Leakage and Unify a Disjointed Partner Program
CONSOLIDATED PARTNER LOYALTY PROGRAM: We designed, architected, and implemented a partner loyalty incentives reward program that includes management integration for a leading global technology company with hardware, cloud, and services offerings.
As their channel loyalty solutions provider, the first step, in collaboration with the client, was to consolidate and automate over 60 data sources down to 4. This critical step ensured proper controls, risk mitigation and enabled a total reengineering of reward and incentive calculation processes to improve client and partner analytics.
The next step was to design and architect a unified partner experience that combined what once were separate MDF, Rebate/Incentives, and Loyalty Reward programs into a single customized user interface for partners.
Today the program runs with the aid of an end-to-end administration workflow and includes global customer service in 14 languages, as well as managing and facilitating partner payments in local currency.

Maximizing the Power of In-Person Events to Drive Leads and Attributed Revenue
FIELD MARKETING TEAMS CRAVE LOCAL PROGRAM ACCOUNTABILITY: Events have long been a tentpole strategy to drive sales pipeline in the technology industry. That said, these same events are incredibly difficult to consistently execute in terms of enterprise brand presentation, local/regional program accountability, and lead attribution.
Ansira worked with a leading global technology client to implement a standardized approach to align their brand presentation and event-goals across multiple geographies. Most importantly, through the work of our Experiential Event team and Client Partnership team supporting this client’s global partner marketing funding programs, we developed a regionally-optimized lead management approach to efficiently collect, evaluate, and work event-driven leads in a more standard and accountable manner.
The evolved event model enabled the client to realize net-positive revenue for their Field Marketing team.

Points Program With Customized Resources to Generate Leads To, Through, and With the Brand
