Routed has announed the appointment of Andrew Bennett as the company’s new business development manager.
Bennett began his career at Dimension Data before moving to more senior roles at Sun Microsystems, Microsoft and VMware.
“My goal in this new position is to expose Routed Hosting to a pre-defined set of both commercial and enterprise accounts, as well as assisting and expanding the company’s current customer relationships to include net new potential customers and partners,” he says.
“I will also be working closely with current Routed resellers in order to help them to increase their hosting/cloud revenue, and will play a part in public relations, market intelligence and business development activities,” he says.
“In the short term, I believe it is essential for me to continue building on the foundation of trust that already exists throughout Routed’s ecosystem, so brand awareness and market exposure will be top of mind. Looking longer term, a core focus of mine will be to increase Routed’s customer base, thereby increasing revenue for both Routed Hosting and its many partners.
“As software, services and infrastructure pricing models increase, customers are looking for more affordable alternatives to solve their IT business challenges and requirements. Routed Hosting has the ability to approach these obstacles in a cleaner and clearer manner, offering potential customers an alternative solution worth investigating.”
