ChannelTalks - Beyond Net-New

iasset

 

In this episode of ChannelTalks, Nick Verykios is joined by two industry experts for a compelling discussion on the real drivers of success in the IT channel.

The conversation explores the cost of acquiring a customer vs the cost of customer churn and why the channel must shift its focus from chasing new logos to maximizing customer lifetime value. 

Our experts discuss and how partner lifetime value plays a pivotal role in sustainable growth and the importance of making it easy for partners to succeed - through better programs, simplified quoting, streamlined processes, and more direct communication with end customers. You’ll hear candid takes on what’s broken in today’s partner models, how outdated channel practices are holding businesses back, and why operational simplicity is the key to scale.

If you’re navigating the complexities of channel strategy, partner enablement, or recurring revenue, this episode is full of insights that challenge the status quo and offer a modern approach to driving long-term value.
