Intelisys Hires Cory Reutzel as Senior Manager, Strategic Partner Development

Former ViaWest Channel Manager Will Support Southwest Region
Petaluma, CA (September 20, 2017) – Intelisys, Inc., a ScanSource company and the nation’s leading Technology Services Distributor, has announced the addition of Cory Reutzel as Senior Manager, Strategic Partner Development, Southwest Region, to its growing team. A 15-year industry veteran, he will support Sales Partners in the company’s Southwest Region and report to Eddie Acosta, Director of Partner Sales, Southwest Region.
Based out of Houston, Texas, Reutzel most recently served as the Regional Channel Manager with Peak 10 + ViaWest, working closely with VARs in the hybrid IT space, helping them transition to selling colocation, cloud and managed services. He has a wealth of experience in data center, cloud, and telecommunications, and is known for delivering excellent support and guidance to both VARs and traditional agent Sales Partners.
“Cory has built a trusted brand reputation in the channel, which is evidenced by the strong relationships he’s built with his partners. He is not your traditional Channel Manager; his knowledge of the hybrid cloud provider space and experience working with telcos and VARs as they transition to providing cloud and managed services will give an almost ‘unfair’ advantage to our Partner community,” said Eddie Acosta. “As our partners take advantage of the convergence between the IT and telecom channels, Cory’s strategic support will enable massive growth and opportunities for our partner community.”
Previous to his tenure with Peak 10 + ViaWest, Reutzel has also held multiple senior leadership roles, including his role as Regional Cloud Channel Manager with Birch, and as Business Development Manager with Windstream. Proficient at identifying and capturing market opportunities to accelerate expansion and increase revenue, his effective business development and leadership skills, combined with a proven sales acumen, will provide increased value to Intelisys Sales Partners in the Southwest Region.
“Over the last several years working in the channel, I’ve had the opportunity to work closely with Intelisys and many of its Sales Partners. I am excited to make the transition, and offer my Sales Partners the best solutions for their clients through Intelisys’ extensive Supplier Partner portfolio,” said Cory Reutzel. “I want my partners to benefit and accelerate their business growth with my experience in the technology space, allowing them to go deeper and wider into their client relationships.”
Cory looks forward to meeting many Intelisys Sales Partners and Supplier Partners. He will be available for meetings at two upcoming events:
Channel Partners Evolution: September 25 – 28, 2017 in Austin, TX
Channel Connect: October 4 – 6, 2017 in Monterey, CA
