A reseller incentive program from Lift & Shift will contribute greatly to help you attain and exceed your strategic sales goals
Keep top of mind with your resellers (and make them forget the competition!)
Your resellers significantly influence sales for your brands, products and services. They can buy and promote your company’s goods or your competitors’. Make sure you’re their #1 brand with a reseller rewards program from Lift & Shift.
Your sales partners will earn valuable rewards as they help you attain and exceed your company’s sales objectives – whether they include year-over-year sales growth, new product launches, new account acquisitions or any other goals you may have.
Build your relationships with your resellers
There’s always so much going on in your marketplace…
- More competitors
- More advertising and promotional noise
- New products
- New account reps
- New customers
All of this can breed anonymity between you and your resellers.
Keep your reseller relationships strong and growing with a reseller reward program. It rewards your partners for their ongoing loyalty – and for helping you achieve your sales volume objectives. Importantly, a reseller reward program creates a “stickier” relationship, giving you a competitive advantage that will drive incremental sales and pay for itself many times over.
You have sales goals, and other goals too
As a manufacturer, you have many objectives for your reseller network. For example, you may want your resellers to help you build marketshare, gain new customers and/or end-users, broaden your geographical territories, launch new brands and products and/or be better trained on your products. A loyalty program can motivate and reward resellers for achieving these goals too.
Four steps to success in implementing reseller incentive programs
Define the goals for your loyalty program
The reward program’s goals must be in sync with your business’ objectives and challenges. That’s where we will start together.
Select rewards and motivational offers that appeal to your resellers
Lift & Shift builds a reward program that’s specific to you – including choosing rewards that motivate and offers that are certain to influence your reseller base. These can include debit and gift cards, merchandise, events, experiential adventures, or even financial incentives.
Communication is key
Personalized communications to your resellers will keep motivation and participation high. They learn of their progress towards various sales goals and/or their status towards redeeming for specific rewards. They are also more likely to read your company’s marketing materials and communications, which helps to forge a greater understanding of your company, brands and products.
Gather program results and use that learning to optimize your program’s ROI
Lift & Shift programs are built to continually improve program ROI. We review program results constantly to learn what best motivates your reseller network. Together, we then fine-tune your reseller reward program, and optimize your program ROI.
