Acer's New Accelerate Partner Program Unlocks Unprecedented Growth Potential for Partners

Acer ANZ has launched its new Accelerate Partner Program to align with its renewed go to market strategy, with the program designed to drive mutual success and growth by fostering long-term relationships and a sustainable foundation through channel partners and distribution networks.

While being a global company with a presence in more than 160 countries and nearly 8,000 employees worldwide, Acer has an established local footprint. Gaba Cheng, Managing Director, Oceanic Region for Acer said, “With Acer celebrating over 30 years in Australia, our new Accelerate Partner Program sees us increase our local commitment to partner engagement. The Accelerate Partner Program has been built to demonstrate that Acer values its partners and the fundamental role they play in our business by delivering a program that is hinged around partner engagement and a collaborative approach. Acer sees so much potential for growth in the ANZ region, and we look forward to bringing our partners on this journey with us.”

Acer’s locally based operations give partners access to a range of benefits including Sydney-based warehousing, technical support and more, with the company choosing to load, check and assemble computers for ANZ customers locally. Acer also offers a range of managed services including device asset tagging, asset reporting and lifecycle management.

The Acer Accelerate Partner Program offers three tiers of partnership - Silver, Gold and Platinum, each with differing criteria. One of the most exciting benefits of the Accelerate Partner Program is the rebate structure, designed to reward sales performance and maximise profitability. Channel partners will start receiving rewards from the first $1 achieved across all three tiers. The Accelerate Partner Program also provides access to training and certification, incentives and rewards such exclusive promotions to partners.

Cameron Anderson, General Manager, Acer Australia Commercial and New Zealand, said, “We’re incredibly proud of this new partner program. We’ve invested time to develop a program that’s rewarding for all involved. One of the key things that sets the Acer Accelerate Program apart is that partners will earn rebates from the first dollar they make and can boost their returns. With such a strong local team at Acer - with representatives in every Australian and New Zealand state and dedicated local operations - our partners can be assured that they’ll have help and timely support whenever they need.”

Acer has a long history of being a premium supplier across the corporate, government and education markets, with The Accelerate Partner Program having a particular focus on boosting Acer’s presence in the SMB market.

“The word partner gets thrown around a lot in this business,” adds Anderson. “We want our partners to be a long-term part of the Acer ANZ community, with Acer dedicated to supporting them to achieve success in their own businesses no matter how large or small their operations. Our new program ensures partners are backed by an organisation that is primed to maximise their success.”
