Each quarter it is not uncommon for SGI Partner Network to pay out rebate checks totaling $10,000, $20,000, $30,000, and higher! However, the average quarterly SGI Partner Network Rebate payment is around $2,246. If your checks are below average or if you want to earn one of those five-figure checks, these 5 tips can help boost your SGI rebate payout.
- Report your purchases online EVERY quarter. This simple step helps your SGI Partner Network Team identify rebates that may have been overlooked or short-paid by the vendor partners. Q4 2021 totals are due by February 10th. Click here for printable instructions.
- Double-Dip manufacturer and distributor rebates. On their own, the equipment and distributor rebates generate the highest payouts. Stack incentives from Bradford White, Goodman, or Siemens with Winsupply, Ferguson, or Home Depot Pro and those payouts soar! For a complete list of Double-Dip combinations, visit SGI Partner Education Resource Guides on the SGI Partner Network Portal.
- Earn rebates on Home Depot retail purchases. Whether you are picking up plywood, wire, or Christmas lights, SGI members can earn up to a 2.8% annual rebate when buying from the retail store or online. Have a big project? For jobs over $1,000, the ProDesk can quote qualifying items for additional savings under the Volume Pricing Program (VPP). Click here for registration instructions.
- Boost your average ticket with upgrades. Not only does offering IAQ, water filtration, surge protection, and insulation add more protection for your homeowners (and profit for you), partnerships such as Dynamic Air Quality Solutions, Novo Water, PSP Products, and Owens Corning Loosefill insulation pay rebates.
- Financing options bring bigger jobs. Now, more than ever, customers are relying on financing to pay for necessary repairs or replacements. If you aren’t offering consumer financing on every job (and not just in the fine print), you could be missing out on opportunities to provide homeowners the services they need along with the upgrades they want. Visit SGI Partner Connections section on SGI Partner Network’s Portal for rate sheets and information on Synchrony Financial, GreenSky, and second-look options from Fortiva.
