Spectrotel's Artale Voted Channel Partners Channel Executive Of The Year Finalist
Online, February 6, 2013 (Newswire.com) - Spectrotel, Inc., a New Jersey-based Competitive Local Exchange Company (CLEC) serving customers throughout the United States, is pleased to announce that Ross Artale has been selected as a finalist for Channel Executive of the Year by Channel Partners magazine, which focuses on the communications industry's indirect sales channel.
Artale is one of 11 channel executives who will be honored, and the winner revealed, during an awards ceremony on Feb. 27, at the Spring 2013 Channel Partners Conference & Expo in Las Vegas. The 11 executives will be further featured in the May/June issue of Channel Partners magazine, as well as online.
To determine the Channel Executive of the Year, Channel Partners solicited nominations from channel partners. To be eligible, a nominee must have been the top person in the company's channel operations - at the executive level of vice president or higher - at a communications vendor (network operator/service provider/manufacturer). Qualified channel partners then cast their ballots for Channel Executive of the Year based on nominees' leadership, longevity, innovation and contribution to the indirect channel.
Artale joined Spectrotel as Vice President of Operations in 2007 and was later promoted to Chief Operating Officer. At Spectrotel, he is responsible for managing and leading all day-to-day operations including, channel partner sales, sales operations, customer care, provisioning and engineering, quality assurance, regulatory, product management and marketing.
"I am honored that that the channel saw fit to nominate me for this award as it sets us apart from the many companies that have an agent program," said Ross Artale, Chief Operating Officer at Spectrotel. "This nomination indicates the strength of Spectrotel's dedication and relationships with its sales partners."
"Each year's crop of Channel Executive of the Year finalists is distinguished," said Khali Henderson, editor-in-chief of Channel Partners magazine, a VIRGO Publishing property. "This year's roster stands out for the solid mix of newcomers and familiar names. All of these executives have earned partners' loyalty and respect, and we congratulate the finalists for earning this recognition."
