Unlimited Revenue OpportunitiesWe go beyond simple volume-based sales and let you choose the level of involvement
that fits your business. Our technical training and resources help you become the
expert your customers want, with a value-based model that lets you build profitability
as you increase certification.
Emphasis on Training and CertificationThe WatchGuardONE Channel program makes it easy for you to expand your knowl-
edge with technical training programs that are offered live and on demand. The more
you invest in training, the more WatchGuard invests in your profitability.
Up-Front Discounts and Back-End RebatesWe let you choose the right level of program involvement for your business. Up-front
discounts are based on the number of people you train internally, and back-end
rebates are a percentage of total purchased revenue, so you get less price pressure
at the outset and greater opportunity overall. On top of that, our Security Pays SPIFF
Program offers instant cash rewards for sales of designated WatchGuard products.
Multi-Channel SellingWe give you easy access to marketing and sales tools, with the flexibility to sell online,
in-store, or in person, whatever works best for your customer base.
