Hello and Welcome -
You
are reading the very first installment of the Telephony Partners
newsletter. We look forward to keeping you abreast of everything going
on around the office and around the industry, and we always invite your
feedback.
We are commemorating the first month of the newsletter with an unbeatable promotion for our agents: SPIF MADNESS. We are offering 100% pass-through of SPIFs to all of our agents for the month of April.
A great way for us to give back to our great agents and to try and get
through a month that is, well, not everyone's favorite. Take the sting
out of tax time with some extra cash - be sure to take a look at the
SPIF offers from a variety of carriers listed in this newsletter.
Along
with SPIF and promotions news, we hope to bring you updates about our
training and mentor programs, news about the evolving technological
terrain where we all do business, as well as insights from our staff
and our agents.
Don't hesitate to send me an email if you
think you have a newsworthy item that should be included in future
editions of the TPLLC Newsletter. Have a fantastic month.

Qwest Names TPLLC Top Florida Business Partner of 2007
|
 Qwest
announced Telephony Partners' designation as Qwest's 2007 Top Florida
Partner at a recent awards meeting in Orlando. CEO Josh Anderson and
Agent Manager Rick Valderrama were on hand (pictured at right with
Qwest's David Rider and Gene Elmore) and were recognized in front of
Qwest's top Florida sales professionals and given a statuette to
commemorate the honor.
"Qwest has always been a leader in the
independent sales channel, and we have been fortunate to work
extensively with them in Florida and throughout the nation," said Josh
Anderson. "Their integrated approach to the channel, allowing direct
reps and our agents to work together on deals and effectively share
leads and industry knowledge, is more progressive and supportive of our
business than any other carrier out there. We are very pleased to be
named Qwest's Top Florida Business Partners 2007."
Telephony
Partners is the carrier's Number One Master Agent in Florida and a
Qwest Premier Business Partner. Josh has sat on the Qwest Advisory
Council and we are a regular attendee of Qwest's annual Q.Marketplace
event for Business Partners.

| XO Communications and Telephony Partners team up for cocktails at 717 South
|
Peter
Davis - Channel manager for XO Communications here in the Florida
region - and the Telephony Partners team got together for a meet and
greet with agents at the award-winning restaurant 717 South. Agents
were treated to a short presentation of XO's capabilities (Ethernet
over copper folks - don't overlook this product), drank some fancy
cocktails and ate some of the better food being served up in South
Tampa.
A
conversation between Peter, RAD-INFO's Peter Radizeski, and Josh about
the hurdles faced by VARs looking to integrate carrier services into
their sales cycle sparked some interesting dialogue and spawned a
podcast that Peter Radizeski hosts on his site (Peter was primed to
talk Master Agents, chairing a round table about them a few weeks later
at the Channel Partners conference.)
While the cocktails and excellent finger food are long gone, the podcast can still be downloaded here.

TelephonyPartners.com gets a facelift
|
It
had been a while, and frankly we were ready to put our best foot
forward for our agents, carrier partners, and prospective agents. The
redesign of our site is complete.
Josh, Rick and Ed have
continued their blogging, and now you can see the most recent additions
to blog content on the front page of the site. Additionally, we have
added a Testimonials page where agents can share their success stories
working with Telephony Partners for the rest of the world to read. For
those interested in pressing issues, our Press Release page will give
details on the events we share with industry media.
As always, a
community area is available for our partners to share their thoughts,
check out photos, and give feedback to the news items and industry
goings-on we blog about.
