Craig Schlagbaum, SVP and Channel Chief, recently sat down with Channel Futures to discuss the evolution of the combined Comcast Business and Masergy program.
Schlagbaum said that he and his team have engaged in deep discussions with partners about what the combined channel program will look like going forward. Specifically, the Comcast Business channel team met with Partner Advisory Council board members last November to get actionable feedback and recommendations that have since been put into motion.
When asked about the two programs joining forces, channel leaders Adam Edwards, CEO, Telarus, and Gary Jacobs, Vice President of Operations and Sales Programs, Bridgepointe Technologies, agreed on the impact this can have in the channel.
Edwards said Masergy will allow partners to “sell more aggressively” into the mid-market using Comcast’s network.
And Jacobs agreed, adding “The combination of the two companies is a good thing. Both benefit from what the other had to offer which will make them much stronger together. “
During his conversation with Channel Futures, Craig laid out the plans to combine our two programs to make a best-of-breed program. Read the full article on Channel Futures.
