Market development funds (MDF) are used in an indirect sales channel where funds are made available by a manufacturer or brand to help affiliates, channel partners, resellers, or distributors, sell its products and create local awareness about the larger brand. Another term for MDF is Co-op funds.
MDF can be structured in different ways, but generally it’s a resource a vendor grants to its indirect sales channel partners to help the channel with sales and marketing programs. The fund may be monetary or even knowledge-based.
Marketers use MDF to support a range of initiatives. Planning, partner coordination and timely execution on MDF-backed programs are considered important factors for the success of the initiative.
Content Creation
MDF often requires an organization to create cut sheets, whitepapers, and other campaign materials to market to prospects and customers. Along with the content for the campaign itself, most brands need some kind of documentation to show proof of performance.
