# Top 10 Channel mistakes

## Have you fallen prey to any avoidable traps?

Doesn’t it feel good to say, “phew, at least we don’t do that!”? Take stock of your partner program and feel good about what you're doing right as you avoid some of the mistakes vendors often make.

We’ve spent all year talking about trends for the future – how to prepare your channel programs, policies and partners to be successful in 2020. There’s a lot to do to keep up with changing customer needs, markets, technology and partner business models.

In this webinar however, we took a look at the common channel mistakes companies of all sizes and maturity levels often encounter. They can creep in if you’re not diligently directing your programs and partners. 

Listen to the webinar and take a look at the slides as Diane and  **Stephanie Sissler** discuss:

- A fun countdown of the top 10 Channel Mistakes
- Examples of how to course-correct from these mistakes

## The Help We Needed

> “Working with the PartnerPath team on this project not only helped us speed up our route to program launch but helped us implement best practices across our industry. We would not be in the position we are in today, without the support from PartnerPath."
