Relayware and ChannelAssist each offer robust channel management technology solutions, supporting services and insightful analytics for partner program excellence. This partnership will give customers one seamless solution that offers comprehensive channel loyalty program technology and support from the partner portal to marketing automation to payment services as well as the processes and communications that enable program success. Vendors working with Relayware and ChannelAssist will transform how they are engaging with partners, improve business decisions and experience a shortened time-to-revenue.

Integrating Partner Relationship Management with Loyalty Program Management

"As partners juggle multiple non-exclusive channel partnerships, suppliers must work hard to gain mindshare and loyalty. Taking a build-it-and-they-will-come approach can spell disaster for most brands unless they develop loyalty programs that are easy to use and reward the right behavior," said Laz Gonzalez, SiriusDecisions Group Service Director of Channel Strategies. "When vendors like Relayware and ChannelAssist work together at this level of partnership and integration, customers can benefit by combining a PRM solution that offers a 360 degree view of the partner to a robust technology platform that supports all the processes necessary to establish, deploy and manage a channel loyalty program."

Expanding Channel Partner Engagement and Mindshare

"Channel partner loyalty programs are essential today to grab and maintain partner mindshare, and ChannelAssist has a deep history of deploying compelling channel loyalty programs," said David Auld, ChannelAssist president and CEO. "The combination of our solutions extends channel partner loyalty and engagement programs beyond the boundaries of traditional loyalty programs and deeply affects meaningful behavior change in channel partners."

"Relayware's world-class channel Partner Portal Pack offers a slick, easy-to-use gateway into a vendor's channel partner program. Our Marketing Pack enables vendors to increase the effectiveness of their partner marketing activities, and our Sales Pack accelerates revenue growth. Now, with the integration of ChannelAssist's Channel Loyalty technology, customers will even further deepen their partner engagement, loyalty, business performance and results," said Jim DeSocio, Relayware chief revenue officer.
