Channel marketing is faster and more effective than traditional growth models. And, it can be highly productive. But, is your B2B supporting that strategy and helping you capitalize on those benefits?
It’s a simple concept, really. You work with people outside of your organization to get your products into the consumer's hands. This exposes your products to a greater variety of marketing campaigns and gives them expanded visibility. It’s cost effective and has proven to increase brand recognition.
Envoy B2B supports your efforts to capitalize on your channel marketing strategy. Let’s look at what that means for you and your brand.
Envoy B2B brings tools to the table that can help your team overcome these challenges and solidify your channel marketing efforts. You’ll get more detailed and extensive insights and analytics, along with actionable guidance and support for your partners. Those two features alone will make sure that the messages going out are consistent with your marketing strategy.
Envoy B2B is equipped with an Activities and Insights dashboard that gives you a window into the activity of the users in your channel. This alleviates a major blind spot from your channel marketing efforts, allowing you to pivot and adjust campaigns as needed.
Activity and Insights delivers two key views:
This data provides actionable information on how your channel partners are interacting with and spreading your marketing message. Using this data, you can adjust campaigns accordingly, or reach out to retailers that may be missing key elements of your marketing strategy.
Our platform also helps you overcome the lack of expertise you might run into with your channel partners. Since you now have access to reliable, real-time, performance data and sell-through statistics, your marketing team or reps can communicate best practices and tips to your retailers.
That real-time feed lets you analyze performance and make decisions about how to directly provide retailers and other channel partners with the support they need to keep up with your marketing efforts. This gives you the power to deliver targeted Showrooms, educational experiences, and provide up-to-date resources – all designed to keep retailers on track with the latest marketing strategies and trends.
And, retailers appreciate it. It’s a level of premium support they aren’t getting anywhere else.
Ensuring that you are in control of your brand’s messaging is essential to hitting goals and increasing revenue. Channel partners don’t always get this right, as they may be working with outdated or erroneous materials.
Envoy B2B creates a single source of truth for everyone in your channel, so you know the right story is being told every time. You can tailor it regionally, customize the message for certain stores, or control versioning with our segmentation tools. Because you don’t need to be sending strategies for selling surfboards to ski shops.
The digital content production and delivery tools, combined with the power of segmentation, ensures that every channel partner is using consistent, up-to-date messaging.
Envoy B2B gives you the power to boost the impact of your channel marketing efforts by providing better data and analytics, giving channel partners the support they need, and ensuring a single source of truth for messaging. This keeps you in control of your story.
That control translates into a more focused and consistent marketing message for your consumers through your valued channel partners.
