San Diego, California –†January 15, 2020 – SaaSMAX Corp., the place where Technology Channel Executives come to fast-track their reseller channel programs, announced today that Chris Gardner, veteran enterprise cybersecurity and AI sales leader, will advise SaaSMAX on driving sales and go-to-market strategy for the Company’s data-driven partner discovery solutions, partner grading and segmentation solutions, and partner activation and enablement solutions, branded PartnerOptimizer.
Chris Gardner has been a successful sales and marketing leader for growth-stage enterprise technology companies in the cybersecurity software and AI space since 2003.† His experience building channel partner programs started back in 2003 with Ivanti (formerly Lumension), after which he led the channel for BakBone Software (acquired by Dell).† From there Chris was brought in repeatedly by Silicon Valley venture capital teams as head of sales for multiple cybersecurity software and solution companies including EdgeWave, Wontok SafeCental, Sendio, Proficio and AttackIQ.
Chris commented: “I’m very excited about the value PartnerOptimizer solutions bring to channel teams, whether they’re well-established or growth-stage.† Finding the right partners and activating them is a huge yet-to-be solved problem for most, if not all, channel teams, and I fully respect and trust the SaaSMAX approach.† †In fact, I wish I had had access to PartnerOptimizer’s partner data, insights and predictive analytics when I was building partner programs that needed to recruit and sell through MSPs and MSSPs, especially in the cybersecurity space.”
SaaSMAX Founder and CEO, Dina Moskowitz, commented, “Chris’ sales and channel leadership success, expertise and first-hand knowledge of the pains we solve with PartnerOptimizer will be a great asset to us.†† Our team has more than 150 years of combined experience in the IT Channel leadership, 35+ years in cybersecurity and 60+ years in cloud-based software.”
