HOLMDEL, N.J., April 10, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Vonage (NYSE: VG),
a leading provider of cloud communications for businesses has
launched a Strategic Sales Group dedicated to supporting the
indirect channel. In addition to offering partners a robust
portfolio of unified communications solutions and best-in-class
service, delivery and training services to help them grow their
customers' businesses, the Strategic Sales Group will provide
exceptional support for a more personalized, white glove,
end-to-end customer experience.
Aimed at enhancing the larger mid-market and enterprise
customer's experience with a richer customer service journey
– from demo to delivery and beyond – this dedicated team will
provide partners and their customers with
individualized support to get their service up and running faster
and more efficiently.
Skyler Stewart, Vice President of
Strategic Channel Sales, will lead the Strategic Sales Group,
having most recently served as a Regional Vice President for
Vonage's Channel Sales team. Mr. Stewart's vast expertise in cloud
communications, coupled with his deep knowledge of the complex
needs of large organizations, brings tremendous value to the
service and support of the Company's mid-market and enterprise
customers.
"Our relationship with channel partners is a vital part of
Vonage's growth strategy and this new initiative underscores the
Company's continued commitment to the indirect channel," said
Gregg Fiddes, Vonage Chief Sales
Officer. "Providing our partners with additional services and
support to complement Vonage's robust cloud communications
portfolio not only increases their potential revenue stream, but
creates an easier path to help them provide their larger customers
with tools to increase efficiency and productivity, transforming
the way they communicate for better business outcomes."
"For mid-market and enterprise customers, a move to the cloud
often requires significant coordination to align various systems,
applications and processes to bring their communications systems
onboard, and we aim to simplify that," said Mr. Stewart. "With our
new Strategic Sales Group in place, channel partners will benefit
from this dedicated team to help them serve, deploy, and support
these customers more efficiently, more seamlessly and more quickly
than ever before."
More and more mid-market and enterprise businesses are moving to
the cloud. With a proven track record of servicing large
deployments for enterprise customers and a rich network of support
designed specifically to cater to the unique needs of large
businesses, Vonage is well-positioned to help channel partners meet
this growing demand.
Vonage has one of the largest indirect channel programs in the
industry with more than 30 dedicated channel managers nationwide.
The Company provides business communications solutions across all
market segments, from the full breadth of the Vonage product suite
