ESET Encourages Middle East Partners to 'Go For Gold' with New Rewards Promotion
Online, February 27, 2014 (Newswire.com) - ESET®, the global leader in proactive digital protection with a record of 10 years consecutive VB100 awards for its award-winning ESET NOD32® technology, has announced commencement of its 'Hit the Goal and Get the Gold' partner incentive program. Extending over the period of one and a half month from the 15th of February to the 31st of March 2014, the program enables sales personnel from the company's reseller partners to earn gold rewards when they meet the preset sales targets. This offer coincides with ESET's reseller rebate promotion which, during the same month and a half period, will allow the company's retailers to earn a cash-back reward for achieving sales goals.
"Our aggressive expansion across the Middle East is very much channel driven and rewarding our partners for their performance is a key aspect of our commitment to them. With the new gold promotion, we offer our partners yet another attractive incentive," said Elham Alizadeh, Channel Marketing Manager at ESET Middle East. "We had a lot of success with the relationship strengthening exercises that we conducted last year and this is the first of many exciting rewards programs in store for our partners in 2014."
As with all ESET promotions, the rules and criteria for 'Hit the Goal and Get the Gold' have been clearly defined. Sales personnel will be awarded gold rewards for achieving sales goals of USD3,000, USD6,000 and USD12,000 respectively. This applies to sales of all products within the business solutions portfolio of the company. All organizations that are a part of ESET's newly launched partner program are eligible for this promotion. ' Hit the Goal and Get the Gold' builds upon the success of the 'Cash-back' promotion held by the company in Q4 2013 which saw ESET reward eleven high performing sales people from 10 of its reseller partners with attractive cash awards.
In another show of commitment to its partners, ESET simultaneously announced that it will be conducting four partner events between the end of February and March 2014. Held in Dubai, Doha and Muscat, these events will be hosted by ESET's sales and training executives and aim to update and train partners on the new technologies available from the security vendor. Emphasis will be given to the entire range of products targeted at business users.
Pradeesh VS, General Manager, ESET Middle East said, "Our recently launched partner program, the expansion of our training room size and facilities at our office in Dubai and fresh set of training programs are a demonstration of our commitment to the channel. We have begun this year very strong by actively engaging with our partners and will maintain this momentum in the year ahead."
