SBS Group Teams Up with Industry Veteran to Grow SBS Partner Network
Woodbridge, NJ, April 17, 2011 --(PR.com)-- SBS Group, a leading technology consulting firm, announced today that it has teamed up with Terry Petrzelka, founder and former Chief Executive Officer of Tectura, Inc., to evolve and expand the SBS Partner Network (SPN). The SPN was developed and launched by SBS Group a little over a year ago to bring together Microsoft Dynamics partners who want to accelerate their business growth. Based on best practices from more than 25 years of business, from local and global Dynamics partners, and from leading marketers the program helps partners drive their entrepreneurial spirit.
Terry Petrzelka, recently retired from Tectura, Inc. has long been a visionary in the Microsoft Dynamics community and led the growth of Tectura to become the largest Microsoft Dynamics partner in the world. At the time of his retirement, Tectura had more than 1600 employees in 20+ countries. Terry will work with the SBS Group leadership team to further enhance and evolve the SPN. “I was immediately impressed with SBS Group’s approach and what they were seeking to accomplish. Our industry is changing and I believe the future will belong to those partners who learn to adopt best practices, focus on specific industries, leverage their investments, and develop new cloud-based services. The SPN provides a great model to help partners transition to that future,” states Petrzelka.
“We are excited to have Terry collaborate with us to expand and evolve our partner network. His experience in building global organizations and his dedication to helping partners will be incredibly energizing to our team. Over the past year, SBS Group has diligently worked to move through the idea, incubation, design, prototype, and initial launch phases. With Terry, we will be working together to build upon this foundation and establish the SPN as the leader in partner networks,” adds James R. Bowman, President and CEO of SBS Group.
Members of the SBS Partner Network offer expanded skill and solutions sets including SharePoint, .Net development, network infrastructure design and implementation along with the entire Dynamics solution set. Members are all individually owned and operated yet utilize and leverage the SBS Group brand, marketing programs, and support services. The program is open to any Microsoft Dynamics partner. “First and foremost we are seeking partners who want to grow their business and are passionate about providing business solutions,” notes Joseph Longo, Senior Vice President. He adds, “From our extensive work in building branded service and in prior partner aggregation models, we’ve carefully crafted our program to leverage that experience. From our support offerings to sales and marketing programs we attempted to maximize the positive benefits a partner can receive without intruding on their entrepreneurial spirit.”
