Fuze Broadens Channel Sales with Expansion of Global Partner ProgramFuze, the leading cloud-based communications platform provider for the modern global enterprise, today announced the expansion of its global partner program to include the option for select partners to resell its solution, a significant expansion from the previous referral model. The initiative, which forms an integral part of the company's international growth strategy, rewards partners who collaborate with Fuze and help extend the company's reach in key territories, including: North America; UK and Europe; Australia; New Zealand; and Africa. Fuze is also piloting professional services and support partner engagement models with additional program components to roll out in 2018. "Unified communications and collaboration stands as the next hyper-growth market opportunity for the channel; we are excited to launch this expanded partnership program as a core element of Fuze's business growth strategy," said Chris Doggett, Chief Sales Officer, Fuze. "We have expanded the program to enable value-added resellers, solution providers, and IT/communications solution consultants to offer Fuze's market-leading communications platform to their customers and prospects, and grow their business." As part of the expanded program, partners will be fully supported by Fuze at all stages of the sales process and will receive recurring commissions or discounts upon customer activation depending on the preferred engagement model. The flexible program terms allow partners to choose their own levels of involvement across the Fuze sales process, whether it is collaborating on customer acquisitions from start to finish, or simply offering an initial recommendation. Fuze also provides ongoing sales and technical support to partners as part of the expanded program. Additional program benfits include:
