Verizon Business unveils Digital Agent, a new sales model geared to supercharge its Partner Network

NEW YORK - Verizon Business announced a new sales model, Digital Agent, created to bolster new business opportunities for existing and new partners in the Verizon Partner Network. Digital Agent enables channel partners to sell Business Internet, connected laptops and tablets with no deal registration, opportunity or lead required. Partners on the platform can sell on behalf of Verizon Business in a new way designed to help facilitate seamless sales with greater benefit to the customer.

“Digital transformation is at the core of increasing efficiencies and creating simplicity in our business, especially when it comes to enabling our partner ecosystem with new tools and resources. Our partners need to transact quickly from quoting to activation, ultimately seeking seamless API integration with our systems. Our team created Digital Agent as a key enabler on this journey,” said Mark Tina, Channel Chief and Vice President of Indirect Partner Sales for Verizon Business. “When you think about the trends that are taking the workforce by storm, for example the skyrocketing popularity of connected laptops, it is clear that partners and customers need an avenue to obtain these assets quickly and reliably. Digital Agent opens up doors for our partners to cast a wide net and sell more quickly, while the customers we serve can get the tools they need to help their business grow.”

Partners can access Digital Agent from anywhere in the field via their online portal. In the portal, partners easily view products with prospects, build a shopping cart, and send to the customer for them to place their order in one fell swoop. The user-friendly portal was designed with customers and partners in mind, giving partners the needed flexibility to simply create a quote and sell, all in one spot.

Verizon Business is continuously sourcing feedback from its channel partners, and the launch of this new model is a direct result of these ongoing conversations. Digital Agent opens up a new way for partners in the Verizon Partner Network to sell key products that will benefit their customers while they’re on the go.
