If your prospective customer knows what they are looking for, and are wondering where to find it or who to buy it from, then our partner locator is the tool you need to assist them.
Our partner locator acts as a comprehensive database of your partner network that provides all the information your end customers need when looking for a seller to make a purchase. The partner locator has a powerful buyer-driven search engine that allows your buyers to search the database and locate the partner (seller) that meets their requirements.
By integrating our partner locator with your e-commerce platform or website, you can connect your end customer to the right seller (a partner from your channel network) almost instantly.
Here are some key features of our partner locator.
The partner locator has a powerful customer-driven, advanced, guided search engine that allows your prospects to search for and pick the right partner/solution based on various parameters including-
The search results can also be sorted based on partner ranking, best match, location, distance, etc.
The search results are displayed in a tile format and include key information about the partner such as the partner logo, short description, specialization, awards won, customer reviews, etc.
Upon clicking on a particular partner (result), the prospect will be directed to the dedicated page of that partner, where they get access to more detailed information about the partner.
The partner pages also feature ratings and reviews given to partners by other customers, which aid the prospect in decision-making.
Prospects can also create a list of favorite partners and share it with others. They can also interact with partners via email.
Our partner locator comes with multilingual localization features, meaning if your website page is viewed in a foreign language, the data displayed by the partner locator is also automatically translated to that language, allowing customers to search for partners and filter the results in their preferred language.
The partner locator is mobile compatible, meaning that, your partners and prospects can access it through their internet-enabled smartphones or tablets.
The Bridge partner locator is easy-to-use and set up from the partner's perspective too. Partners can easily configure their own profiles in the partner locator by adding information such as-
The partner profiles in the partner locator can be linked to the co-branded microsites, landing pages, social media profiles of the partners, etc., Partners can further strengthen their profiles in the partner locator by sharing sales and marketing assets such as brochures, product spec documents, videos, sales presentations, etc.,
If the prospects fill out a form to reach out to a particular partner via the partner portal, the lead information is captured and shared with the Partner via Bridge. At the same time, if integrated with Salesforce or any other PRM/CRM, the lead is also created in that platform for the partner to pursue further.
Vendors can review and approve partner profile information before it goes live on the partner locator where prospective buyers can see it
Often partners lack visibility into the prospect's activities on the OEM (vendor's) site. This lack of transparency results in delays from the partner's end in getting in touch with the lead. Our partner locator provides the opportunity for OEMs to capture and share lead information with the right partner enhancing the chances of lead closure.

The partner locator module has 2 interfaces to it--internal and external. While the external interface is what your end customers will see, the internal interface is for vendors and partners only. This interface displays partner data that is not visible to end customers and prospects. The reporting and analytics module is a part of the internal interface.
Similar to the partner locator, Bridge also offers a product locator. These come in handy when your customers are looking for a particular product to resolve their business challenges. Just like the partner locator, the product locator is a buyer-driven, guided search engine for your products. The end customer can search for a product of their choice on your website's product locator page and they will get access to all details related to the product including sales and marketing materials such as brochures, tech specs, videos, product reviews and ratings, along with information about the partners in your network who sell those products.
The product locator is also mobile-friendly and supports localization to display results in the language of the website. Just like the partner locator, our product locator also comes with a fully customizable interface, integrating seamlessly with your website to match your branding.
