Here’s what clients have to say about our contractor and dealer incentive programs.
“Incentive Solutions does a great job of managing the dealer reward programs for the Goodman and Amana brands. The account executives are always quick to respond and provide recommendations of how to structure a program / campaign, in addition to being great partners to brainstorm new approaches to rewarding the target behavior we are looking for. Strong company with excellent people that will help you manage your internal / external incentive programs with ease!”
—Andres Barrenechea
“Incentive programs, such as rebates and rewards for purchases, helps keep our products top of mind with contractors. We are the top preferred brand of ductless, but ductless itself requires additional push through the channel since it is largely still considered niche. Incentives help us strengthen the contractors’ consideration in ductless and our brand. We also experience more frequent product innovations, and subsequently may find a need to drive a reduction of current stock. Incentives are a great win-win marketing tool for us and the channel.”
—Mike Smith
