Spark™, an innovative demand generation company, announced today the release of a new automation feature that will automatically serve up the next relevant piece of content, allowing the Partner to continue driving demand however they’d like. This will completely change the way Partners, especially their sales people, engage with their Vendors.
Spark™, which was founded by channel marketing expert Heather K. Margolis (who also founded Channel Maven Consulting™ in 2009), developed an Automated Recommender Engine that combines relevant Vendor content with their own personalized video intros and outros. The content is delivered at the Partners’ preferred cadence and can then be instantly shared via all applicable communication channels.
“After talking to Partners about what they want, our goal has always been to make Spark Your Channel™ more about the personalized content Partners can use wherever they want including marketing automation, CRMs, social posts, sales sequences, and individual emails”, said Margolis.
“Since launching in February, all of our worlds have changed making video more important than ever. For the Partners that don’t have marketing or the bandwidth to customize an entire campaign or to create a video each and every time they send a message, we’re using their video intro and outro on all relevant content. Basically with 30 minutes of their time and Spark’s unique automation capabilities they can personalize hundreds or even thousands of pieces of content.”
Spark Your Channel™ has raised an angel investment round, including several channel veterans, and is now raising a seed funding round led by York IE, Manchester, N.H.
