(Scottsdale, AZ) At a time when sales goals seem unattainable and new business hard to come by, PlanetOne blew past the industry's perceived obstacles to emerge as the frontrunner in XO's Top Ten Business Partners for 2009. The announcement was made in late January by XO’s then channel chief Jim Delis.
Ted Schuman, PlanetOne Founder and CEO, is honored to be recognized for this achievement, while giving accolades to the other nine partner companies included in the winning roster.
"We worked hard this past year, but XO's product makes our job easy," Schuman said. "And it's our goal to maintain our leadership position with them through 2010."
The annual XO Business Partner honors are based on new sales and customer retention, according to Brian Law, XO's new channel chief, and the competition is highly sought after by the agent community industry-wide.
"PlanetOne outranked, outsold and outperformed all other contenders," Law said. "In our book, that's outstanding. They've really earned this year's top ranking, and we congratulate them on their success."
According to Schuman, PlanetOne has been affiliated with XO Communications since 2003. In 2007, they earned fourth place, and in 2008, they emerged as number three on the list.
"We've seen a steady progression of success over the years with XO" Schuman added. "We have several carriers in our preferred vendor group, but if I had to pick one that really stands out, it would be XO Communications. They are channel-friendly, offer excellent compensation plans and really embrace the culture of what we're all about."
