Empowering Your Channel Partners - Improving The End Customer Experience

June 21, 2021  |  2:00 PM – 3:00 PM EST

Summary

Channel programs have evolved from looking at wholesalers, resellers, and distributors in purely transactional terms to building a strategic partner ecosystem that creates more value for the end-customer. 

According to Forrester, the average channel program will grow the number of partners by 10x in five years, and 80% of these new partners will be non-transacting partners such as influencers, advocates, and retention partners.

With investment in a well-designed partner program being so critical, are you empowering your partners with programs that lead to an improved customer experience for the end customer?

BWG Connect, Adobe and TA Digital invite you to participate in an interactive discussion with your peers, exploring this shifting landscape.

As always, there will be no sales pitches and there is no cost to join.


Discussion Topics


  • How to embrace a CX mindset to your partner program
  • The importance of understanding your partners' & customers' needs and pain points
  • How to empower your channel partners with the right tools and training
