Conference Plus, Inc. (ConferencePlus™), a leading global provider of audio, web, and videoconferencing services, announced today that it is now offering an innovative new Master Agent Program devoted exclusively to qualified Master Agents selling communications products and services. The program launched today at the Fall 2007 Channel Partners Conference & Expo at The Meadowlands Exposition Center in Secaucus, NJ. ConferencePlus representatives will be providing full details of the new program to interested Master Agents at the Fall & Expo Conference in Booth #417 from September 26 to 28.
“We analyzed the market and found there was a large disconnect between what was offered to Master Agents and what they desired in terms of support and commissions,” said Reed Ellis, Channel Partner Director of Sales, ConferencePlus. “Our program has been designed to provide the lucrative commission structure and incentives that Master Agents want and then we back it with the unparalleled support that is the foundation of the ConferencePlus business. We are really excited to offer a truly unique and comprehensive program that provides opportunities to win and build business to Master Agents,” Ellis added.
The new ConferencePlus Master Agent Program bases pricing and commissions on buy/sell rates and is fully supported by a dedicated account team and industry leading customer service. ConferencePlus will focus on product and program training and will employ the PartnerForce, Partnership Relationship Management module within SalesForce.com. The suite of on-demand CRM applications allows users to manage and share all of their sales, support, marketing and partner information on-demand.
Master Agents and their customers will be able to brand or co-brand online account and conferencing tools as well as have access to four different options for web conferencing services. These options address the specific needs of any organization and increase productivity as well as simplify scheduling and help to control costs. All of the branded on-line tools are intuitive, easy to use, and only require a standard browser and an internet connection.
