Matt Solomon and Kevin Lancaster join the show and introduce the Channel Program. Channel Program is a video-enabled collaborative platform designed to bring the entire channel community together.  There are three current components, Channel Pitch, Channel Explorer and Channel Cash.

Website: https://channelprogram.com/

Channel Pitch is a live-stream and on-demand showcase combined into one cohesive digital springboard that promises exponential visibility to vendors and clear curation for Channel Partners. None of the fluff, all of the value.

Channel Explorer is the industry’s first, truly innovative video and social-first collaboration platform. We have achieved true innovation for online video sharing and a social media dynamic, thoughtfully tailored directory of the most effective players in the channel.

Channel Cash is an industry first, ridiculously easy to use Marketing Development Fund (MDF) program that is completely vendor independent. Channel Cash is simple and has no complicated hoops to jump through, no cumbersome application processes, ROI justifications, and ridiculous reporting. Just straight cash incentives and discounts to help the channel grow in a meaningful way.
