Clarion Technologies, a leading provider of software development solutions, has strengthened its leadership team by appointing Trish Kapos as the new Channel Sales Head in the United States. With twenty years of experience and a proven track record of driving sales through partnerships, Kapos is well-positioned to make a significant contribution.
Kapos’s extensive background in channel sales, including roles at multinational companies like AT&T and other major technology distributors, equips her to lead Clarion’s sales channel strategy. Her decision to lead Clarion’s channel programme showcases her deep understanding of successful channel dynamics and industry best practices.
Harjinder Kohli, COO for the North America region at Clarion Technologies, expressed his excitement about Kapos joining the leadership team: “We are thrilled to welcome Trish Kapos to our leadership team. Her extensive experience in channel sales and her strategic vision will be instrumental in driving Clarion’s growth and expanding our market reach. Trish’s expertise and innovative approach are exactly what we need to strengthen our channel programme and deliver exceptional value to our partners.”
Establishing a new channel sales programme requires meticulous planning and structuring. At Clarion, once the strategy is finalised, the focus will shift to identifying the right partners and fostering relationships to seamlessly integrate them into our team.
Here’s Kapos’s perspective on her new role as channel sales head: “Our partners seek a robust programme with comprehensive tools, competitive incentives, and accessible self-training resources. My goal is to exceed these expectations, equipping partners to capitalise on opportunities and expand their share of clients’ technology spend by including software development.”
The company intends to concentrate on channel sales strategy to drive business growth by connecting with customers who prefer to purchase from consultants or resellers via trusted intermediaries. Selling products through third-party marketplaces and managed service providers enables Clarion to offer package deals and attract buyers looking for diverse product options. Additionally, the channel sales programme will help the company discover business opportunities in new geographic regions, thus expanding its market presence for software development.
