GN Netcom Launches Partner Programme

GN Netcom has today launched a new Channel Partner Programme, as part of a major
drive to attract new resellers and enhance the support package for its existing
partner network. The programme will help partners profit from a boom in wireless
headset demand, partially driven by the growth of IP telephony, which is set to
increase by 40 per cent in 2007 according to Ovum.

In the last year, GN Netcom has seen wireless headset sales grow by 200% in the UK
and the company says demand is soaring in the office and contact centre mar-kets in
2006, creating new business opportunities for resellers.

By bundling the high-margin GN headsets with other products, resellers can
frequently revisit their customer base and up-sell their existing portfolio,
offering customers a complete communications solution.

The new channel programme offers a tiered framework designed to suit resellers of
all sizes and will help them to take advantage of an easy-to-sell portfolio of high
margin, award winning products.

The programme also offers a number of other key benefits:

. Free training and dedicated sales personnel
. A regular communications programme
. Marketing materials and support
. Discounted, in-house and demonstration equipment

"The significant increase in the uptake of wireless headsets and expected market
growth provides a fantastic opportunity for UK resellers," said Jan McNair,
Managing Director, GN Netcom. "Our new partner programme reflects our
commitment to the channel and working with our approved distribution partners we
hope to attract resellers of all sizes. The tiered approach ensures that each
partner is receiving the right support from GN, including training, education,
incentives and access to marketing development funds."
