Hello Cisco Partners,

The last thing you need as you are frantically working to make sure no rebate dollars are left on the table is to take time to read a blog. But let’s get to the point, you need to make sure every “i” is dotted and “t” is crossed. Below are some quick reminders of what you need to do to be successful. And oh, by the way, leveraging Netformx ChannelXpert is like having an extra set of eyes to help you pinpoint where VIP is at risk.

FACT: Actions to take before VIP39 ends (July 30, 2022)

  • Check Subtracks Minimum Booking Targets/MCV Revenues
    • For Subtracks not at minimum bookings/revenue:
      • Review ‘Missing Booking to Secure Rebate or Meet Cumulative MCV’ with Sales Ops to promote/spiff/pull potential orders to book by the end of VIP
    • For Subtracks with minimum bookings/revenue met:
      • For Architecture VIP note ‘VIP Eligible Shipped’ against ‘Potential Rebate’ to identify the dollar amount of orders
        • Export Status Check Excel report and identify orders to open a case to escalate shipping to Cisco
      • For Annuity VIP verify that Expected Rebate meets program expectations
