Dell Technologies Partner Program launches RISE to maximise profit potential and growth for Authorised Partners in Ireland

Dell Technologies announced the official launch of RISE for Authorized Partners in Ireland, merging its existing independent country offerings for Authorized partners into a single unified offering.

As part of the Dell Technologies Partner Program, RISE provides partners in Ireland with greater profit potential, enabling them to earn more when they sell more across the Dell Technologies client and server portfolios. The evolved offering rewards partners as they grow their business with Dell Technologies and work towards metal tier requirements and even more financial benefits.

“In 2020 we have seen growth in every quarter in the number of resellers selling Dell Technologies products and solutions in Ireland, but now we want to capture and accelerate this momentum. With our industry-leading portfolio and launch of RISE, we’re providing a more formal engagement path for these Authorized Partners to become part of the Dell Technologies partner community in Ireland and grow their Dell Technologies business even further.

Through RISE partners will have increased opportunity and profit potential to support their growth with us and rise through the Dell Technologies Program levels.” – Colm Greene, Director of Channel Sales, Dell Technologies Ireland.

RISE Overview & Process

As a first of its kind offering, the new RISE partner levels, Ignite, Boost, Advanced and Elite have been developed to elevate Dell Technologies SMB Partners over competitors and establish a path to levelling up their Dell Technologies business from Authorized to metal partner tiers.

RISE offers a progressive reward scale giving partners attractive reasons to grow their Dell Technologies business. Partners are rewarded on a US dollars per-box basis based on revenue made through a Dell Technologies Authorized Distributor. Rewards can be earned on a range of commercial client products including Displays, Latitude Notebooks, Optiplex and Precision Workstations, XPS Desktops, After or Near Point of Sale Services (APOS/NPOS), PowerEdge Servers, Microsoft Reseller Option Kit (ROK) and more.

Partners will be able to accumulate dollars every quarter. Rewards can be redeemed at quarter-end and paid out as e-vouchers for Ignite and Boost partners or passed through as credit notes at the distributor for Advanced and Elite partners. Rewards can be used against partners’ next purchase of Dell Technologies products at their chosen Dell Technologies Authorized Distributor.

RISE is available in Ireland and across the EMEA region. Existing Authorized Partners will automatically be rolled into the new offering. New partners can check their eligibility and enrol as Ignite and Boost partners through the Dell Technologies Performance Portal, while Partners in the Advanced and Elite groups will enrol via the Dell Technologies Incentive Center. Details of the grouping and rewards mechanics can also be found through the portal, or learn more here.
