snom announces Platinum and Gold Partners for 2012

Awards recognise distributors’ strong sales and customer service

London, UK, 12 January 2012 – IP telephony solutions provider snom has announced its Gold and Platinum Partners for 2012, with a total of nine distributors gaining the coveted Platinum Partner status, and a further ten becoming Gold Partners. Gold and Platinum partner status is awarded in recognition of strong sales of snom products, as well as the high levels of support the partners have provided to their snom customers throughout 2011.   

EFL and Zycko are two of only nine distributors in the UK that have been awarded Platinum Partner status. Gold Partner status was also awarded to UK-based ProVu Communicatons, one of ten firms to be given this level of recognition. The distributors will take advantage of a number of benefits resulting from their new status as Platinum and Gold Partners, including additional channel advertising support. Future Platinum Partner activity will include joint marketing campaigns, a place on snom’s sales roadshows, additional sales activity and inclusion in the snom Certified Engineer programme.

“Platinum Partner status is awarded in recognition of the hard work our partners have been doing pushing our products through their sales channels,” explains Michael Knieling, executive director at snom technology AG. “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 recognise 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.”
