The Specialization program is comprised of tracks that offer partners the opportunity to self-select the technical category that best reflects their current business model and then add other competencies as their business evolves. Each track equips partners to acquire technical expertise and best practices for implementation success with Citrix solutions in the areas of virtualization, mobility management and networking.
Citrix states that its new CSA program is the central pillar of the new Citrix Partner Growth Plan, designed to help CSAs achieve significant year-over-year revenue growth. The plan includes three additional pillars, including field and partner collaboration, focused partner enablement across the customer lifecycle, and robust demand generation focused on multi-touch marketing campaigns.
Citrix will focus on energizing collaboration and engagement between our field teams and partners by aligning partners and Citrix field sales resources to focus on opportunities in specific customer segments, and simplified and accelerated incentive approvals.
Citrix recognizes that the key to continued and sustainable partner productivity is enablement and will introduce new tools, resources and programs. These additional investments are targeted to maximize efficiency of partners at every stage of the sales and services lifecycle from technical skills development, sales execution through to successful implementation of solutions.
To expand the breadth and depth of integrated solutions across apps, desktops, data and collaboration delivered by the partner community, Citrix believes that CSAs play a critical role in demand generation and new customer acquisition. To enhance partners’ marketing capacity and effectiveness, Citrix will help partners identify growth opportunities in target markets and enable them to better plan and execute effective multi-touch marketing campaigns, made available through best-in-class marketing platforms.
