The HON Company Asks Dealers and Channel Partners: Are You HON Ready

New Channel Partner Web Portal Provides One-Stop Access to All HON Channel Partner-Related Materials and Services

Muscatine, IA – January, 2010 – On January 11, 2010, The HON Company launched a comprehensive new Web site for Dealers and Channel Partners, HON Ready. Located at honready.hon.com, the site seamlessly brings together more than 25 dealer sites which the company formerly offered. The previous Web sites, including honbusiness.com, honliterature.com, honsmart.com and honimages.com, have been permanently moved to HON Ready.
 
“What can Dealers and Channel Partners expect to find on HON Ready? In one word – everything,” said Mike McClaflin, director of e-business for The HON Company. “Our goal in creating the new portal was to consolidate all of the information and resources that used to be housed on multiple sites – and put it conveniently on one site. HON Ready will give Dealers and Channel Partners easier access to information, a single sign-on and password, and one spot to find anything and everything related to doing business with HON. Plus, looking ahead, HON Ready will be the tool we use to continue to streamline communications and deliver innovative, tailor-made tools to our Dealers and Channel Partners.”
 
HON shared details of the new portal with its Dealers and Channel Partners in December, so they had ample time to register and ensure an easy transition to the new site.
 
Specific materials and resources offered at the HON Ready portal include:
  • Marketing Resources – Literature, press releases, brand guidelines, and additional tools
  • Products – Thorough information on HON and basyx products
  • Design Resources – Updates on textiles and finishes, specials, specification services, and more
  • Pricing & Proposals – Bids, contracts, pricers, and competitive information
  • Order Information – e-Ordering and support
  • Programs & Rewards – HONors and HON HONORS, channel partner programs, promotions and forms
  • General Library – Brand Guidelines, catalogs and pricers
  • Learning Center – Training tools
 
Channel partners with questions about using HON Ready can email honready@honcompany.com or call 1-800-552-0012.
