Pleasanton, CA — July 09, 2019 — ZINFI Technologies, Inc., a company leading the definition and creation of Unified Partner Management (UPM) solutions, today announced it is offering a complimentary download of its latest publication on channel marketing automation, the Deal Registration Best Practices Guidebook.

The new guidebook helps organizations marketing and selling in the channel develop a more structured, partner-focused approach to their deal registration programs. Such programs often fail to take into account the partner organizations’ own business interests, and as a result the programs can struggle to attract partner interest and participation. Chapters in the guidebook cover the key components of successful programs, important questions to ask when configuring deal registration software, how to use programs to boost partner engagement and satisfaction, how to boost sales and revenues by aligning deal registration with other programs, and common pitfalls that vendors encounter when establishing programs.
The last section of the guidebook introduces the concept of Unified Partner Management, which encompasses partner relationship management (PRM), partner marketing management (PMM), and global marketing services (GSM).
“For organizations marketing and selling in a channel environment, deal registration can be an important tool for protecting opportunities for partners who have already invested significant time and effort into developing those opportunities,” said Sugata Sanyal, CEO and founder of ZINFI Technologies. “Effective deal registration programs help vendors eliminate channel conflicts, protect customers from being pursued by reps from multiple partners, and reward partners for approaching deals in the right way. In our experience working with dozens of channel marketing organizations over the years, vendors often fail to find the right incentives to get partners engaged. We hope that vendors will consult this guidebook to get a fresh perspective on deal registration, because we have seen first-hand how well-designed programs can increase sales, improve the bottom line and boost partner satisfaction across the channel.”
