Glowpoint Recognizes KBZ Communications with "2008 Reseller Channel Partner of the Year" Award
Glowpoint, Inc. (OTC BB: GLOW.OB), a leading provider of advanced video communications solutions, announced today that KBZ Communications, a leading Tandberg “Master Distributor”, has won Glowpoint’s “2008 Reseller Channel Partner of the Year” award.
Glowpoint president and COO, Joe Laezza, said, “Glowpoint, in conjunction with its partners, is able to deliver a complete solution to the market. The 70 percent increase in 2008’s channel driven revenues over 2007 is noteworthy and we want to recognize the partners who made it happen.”
Laezza noted, “Our reseller channel partners make up a vital part of our business model and distribution strategy. With more and more businesses realizing the value of HD video and Telepresence solutions, a growing percentage of Glowpoint’s overall annual revenues can be attributed to sales by our reseller channel partners. While KBZ drove the most net new revenue growth in 2008, the increased contribution of partners like Cenero and Conferencing Advisors was substantial. As compared to 2007, Cenero grew its sales of Glowpoint services more than 500 percent in 2008, and Conferencing Advisors grew its sales of Glowpoint more than 150 percent. The positive track we are on is a strong reflection of their efforts.”
Glowpoint recognizes its reseller channel partners annually based on their overall contribution. Other reseller channel partners recognized this year include Cenero; Conferencing Advisors, Inc.; MSpace; and The Whitlock Group.
