Supply Chain Solutions for SaaS

Today’s vibrant ecosystem of partners and influencers is driving customers’ pursuit of solutions to support and grow their businesses. The shift to Software as a Service (SaaS) impacts the way software is sold and customers are retained (or lost). How are you tracking and incentivizing all your ecosystem partners – from initial sales to the retention of your customers? Personalized incentives keep partners and influencers engaged with your solutions. Software companies no longer sell, support, and expect customers to stay – there is a constant cycle of selling a solution, meeting expectations, and engaging the entire ecosystem to continually earn and re-earn your customers’ business.
