📅 June 5, 2002 - Global IP solution provider Verio Inc. (Verio.com ) announced on Wednesday that it has appointed former Qwest channel executive Craigh Schlagbaum to head channel sales for its NTT/VERIO Enterprise Hosting solutions.

As vice president of channel sales for the Enterprise Hosting business unit, says Verio, Schlagbaum will lead the company's channel strategy, working with telecom agents, application and Web integrators, systems integrators, network integrators and other solutions providers and partners to sell NTT/VERIO enterprise hosting to medium and large customers.
The new channel program implemented under Schlagbaum's direction will include an enhanced commission structure and reseller discounts along with other features including additional partner support, electronic access to Verio's back-end systems, dedicated channel managers and joint direct and indirect sales calls to support closing new customers.
