“That three of our key snom UK distributors were awarded Platinum status is extremely satisfying.” Said John Bennett Managing Director of snom UK, “snom UK have had an excellent year in 2013 and we are very proud of these awards achieved by our distributors and we are looking forward to continuing to work with them and having an equally successful 2014.”
ProVu Communications, EFL and Zycko receive three of only eleven Platinum Partner awards bestowed upon organizations across the globe. These distributors will now take advantage of a number of benefits resulting from their status as Platinum and Gold Partners, including additional channel marketing support. Platinum Partner activities will include joint marketing campaigns, additional sales activity and inclusion in the snom Certified Engineer program.
“Platinum Partner status is awarded in recognition of the hard work our partners have been doing pushing our products through their sales channels,” explains Bennett, “All of our Platinum and Gold partners have had a very successful year selling snom’s products, and it is great that we are able to recognize this by awarding them Platinum and Gold Partner status. However, this is not just based on sales, but also the fact that these distributors have displayed fantastic customer support and knowledge of the snom product portfolio. These distributors have gone above and beyond simply selling our products.”
snom has three levels of distributors – platinum, gold and official – as part of its Partner Program, a comprehensive indirect channel sales program designed to ensure snom’s global sales coverage and drive sales for the company’s portfolio of advanced IP business phones. The program is anchored by snom’s distributor partners who provide the mission critical, on the ground sales support and distribution for snom’s products to snom Certified VAR partners, a growing network of highly trained telecom resellers, interconnect, IT services and managed IT service providers.
