Sophos rewards partners

New scheme luanched to recognise loyalty

Sophos has announced a new online incentive scheme - Sophos Rewards - to recognise the loyalty and commitment of its Partners and Certified Partners.

The scheme rewards Partners by allocating loyalty points on all orders paid to Sophos. These points can then be exchanged for a range of activities from land yachting to bodyguard training or even chartering a private flight to France for the day. Partners will receive help from Sophos account managers who will advise on how to maximise the potential for earning points.

"The reward scheme is our way of repaying our Partners for their hard work," said Oliver Carter, UK Sales Manager, Sophos. "We have been selling via the channel for several years now and relationships with our Partners have become very important to us. We have chosen the online reward scheme as the best means to show how much we appreciate their commitment to Sophos."

Sophos offers its Partners support across sales and marketing in addition to technical support. The Sophos Partner Programme is designed to cater for all resellers from VARs to telesales and catalogue resellers. It provides recognition and incentives to all Partners and guarantees higher rewards for those qualifying as Certified Partners. Partners become Certified Partners by invitation, based on their commitment to selling and promoting Sophos. Those involved in the scheme can buy direct from Sophos to guarantee higher margins with profitable sales.

Partners can register for the scheme here.
