CHANNEL PARTNER MARKETING

Cisco transformed its partner marketing platform from Marketing Velocity Central (MVC) into Marketing Velocity (MV) — a next-gen digital co-marketing experience that empowers partners to co-brand, customize campaigns, use ABM strategies, and leverage marketing funds more effectively.

Key highlights include:

  • Up to 5.2x more pipeline generated through MV.
  • 600+ unique partner activations for “Secure the Enterprise” campaigns — 35% higher than other solutions.
  • Co-branded assets like social kits, videos, and infographics align with Cisco’s messaging and boost joint go-to-market efforts.

With the October 2024 launch of MV Reimagined, Cisco improved usability with better content discovery, enhanced design, and upgraded dashboards. Moving forward, the focus is on delivering a unified, AI-powered co-marketing experience to keep Cisco at the forefront of B2B innovation.
