PFI Features Reseller Salesperson Identifier

Ohio-based incentive company Partners for Incentives provides a simple widget to help manufacturers obtain the names and contact information of reseller salespeople and build ongoing relationships.

Many companies that sell through distribution partners face a simple challenge: identifying the specific names and contact information of the salespeople who sell their products to end-users. To help address this challenge, Partners for Incentives (PFI) Award Link platform offers a simple way for salespeople to sign up directly to receive rewards for verified sales, the company says.

PFI is a 70-year-old incentive company that sells almost exclusively through promotional products and related marketing and human resources advisory companies.

Explains Roger Thomas, Vice President of Business Development for Partners for Incentives, “You’d be surprised how many major companies that sell through distributors have no idea of the names and contact details for those people, making it very difficult to keep these critical players up to date with new products, services, and opportunities. Our distributor identifier platform makes it easy for brands to offer an incentive program to distribution partners that they in turn can use as a perk for their own salespeople. The system includes an easy way for salespeople to upload receipts for verification and earn points for rewards in return for also identifying themselves for ongoing marketing.”

Once signed up, salespeople can continue to upload invoices for rewards and are kept up to date with the latest information from the manufacturers.

For the wholesaler or distribution company, he notes, the awards provide an extra benefit for their salespeople that their company doesn’t have to pay for, with the added knowledge that their sales teams will become better informed about the latest new products, services, pricing, or other benefits.

According to the Frantz Group, there are over 330,000 wholesale distribution companies in the US with total sales of over $7 trillion.
