With an aim to double partner base in India, neoteric infomatique, in association with enterprise communications vendor Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise (ALE), has launched the SMB Champions League for its Independent Resellers (IR).
The channel program is applicable from May 1, 2015 to December 31, 2015.
With SMB Champions League, the aim is to double the ALE partner base. ALE has 2900+ partners serving more than 830,000 customers worldwide.
The partner rewards program will recognize IRs under two categories — Biggest and Fastest Achievers — for their overall business performance in driving sales for the Alcatel-Lucent OpenTouch Suite for SMB in India.
The OpenTouch Suite offers converged solution for voice and data, with zero touch deployment for Indian SMBs.
The Biggest Achievers category is open to IRs registered under the Alcatel-Lucent Enterprise Partner Program. The accredited IR who achieves minimum ALE business with at least 20 percent growth during the program period, as against the earlier eight months, will compete in the Biggest Achievers category.
The Fastest Achievers category is open for existing as well as new IRs. New IRs need to get accredited by November 30, 2015 to participate in the SMB Champions League. A minimum threshold for Fastest Achievers category is set for IRs to achieve during the period of the scheme.
Top partners in each category will win quarterly rewards. The ultimate reward for 16 qualifying partners will be a fully-paid international travel. The last date to register for the program is June 30, 2015.
“The SMB Champions League is designed to motivate existing partners to drive growth of their ALE solutions business and at the same time to enroll and encourage new partners to become accredited and win rewards,” said Prasath L Rao, head, Enterprise Channels & Operations, South Asia, Alcatel-Lucent India.
