For manufacturers

What makes this network’s program work.

Water treatment dealers often carry more than one line and sell through in-home consultations. A program works when the rules are clear, the dealer knows what to run, and every brand’s records stay separate.

01

Define useful digital participation

Review existing eligibility, approved product language, brand assets and dealer instructions. Where you do not yet offer digital co-op, we help you design which activities it covers and what evidence each one requires.

02

Activate local dealer networks

Outreach and campaign planning tied to each dealer’s service territory and your objectives, so funds turn into in-market activity instead of unused allowances.

03

Keep each brand’s evidence together

Connect approvals, creative versions, delivery records and invoiced advertising costs by brand, which matters most for dealers carrying several manufacturers.

Ways to engage

Choose the support you need.

For water treatment programs, most engagements begin with the dealer instructions and the evidence checklist, because those two documents decide whether dealers participate at all.

Compliance review is available even when another agency executes the advertising. Want an approved agency under your own brand? White-label option

Illustrative example

Single-line ad, multi-brand destination

A dealer runs a paid search ad for one filtration line, but the ad links to a general page that also features competing brands.

This scenario is illustrative. It uses generic roles and records, not a client outcome or a statement of any program’s rules.

For dealers

Using your existing co-op funds

Using a water treatment manufacturer’s funds starts with knowing which activities and destinations the program accepts. We help dealers plan campaigns around their service area, keep each brand’s records separate and prepare the submission the program asks for.

Bringing a regional softener program online

FAQ

Questions about water treatment and filtration programs

Can you help create our first digital co-op program?

Yes. We help define the rules, dealer instructions, participation approach and evidence requirements, starting from whatever your dealers already receive today.

Can we use your review service with our current agency?

Yes. Independent compliance review and reporting are available without Coop Claim running the advertising. Your agency keeps executing; we review the evidence against your program.

Can a dealer use more than one brand’s funds?

Each program, and the allocation of each ad, has to be evaluated separately. We do not make blanket eligibility promises; we help dealers document what each program requires.
