D-Link, a networking solutions provider, has introduced a 5 percent upfront discount from a partner's distributor of choice as part of its Premier Partner Program to help its value-added resellers during these tough economic times.
-Link program benefits for registered resellers include:
40+ dedicated account managers and field-based sales and engineering resources. -- 5% upfront discounts on all business class, voice and support products. -
Volume incentive rebates (VIRs) starting at very attainable levels, payable from the first dollar purchased. -
Quarterly spifs and margin enhancing promotions. -- 5% up front discounts for public sector, education and non-profit organizations. -- 50% off the cost at distribution on demo equipment. -
Rapid response bid desk for competitive situations with a committed response time of from four to 24-hour response times. -
Proposal-based market development funds. -- Priority Level 3 technical support.
The 5 percent upfront rebate is a key benefit for D-Link's authorized partners looking to increase sales and maximize earnings. This incentive can be combined with other promotions to provide D-Link VARS with additional revenue.
"We believe it is important for all of our VARs to get field support," said Komal Shah, director of channel programs and promotions, D-Link Systems, Inc.
"Through our research we know that many of our competitors do not always offer it, and that often times our field engineering teams are just what our VAR partners need to reach the next level of their sales goals."
