Blue Jeans Network Rings in 2012 with New Referral Partner Program and Four New Partners

New Referral Program makes it fast, easy and lucrative for partners to help their customers benefit from Blue Jeans’ interoperable video conferencing service

New Partners include ADTECH Systems, AV Colorado, NextNet Partners, and Thresher Communication & Productivity, Inc.

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--()--Blue Jeans Network, the leader in interoperable video conferencing services, today announced the availability of a new referral partner program designed to augment its existing channel partner programs. The new referral program offers audio-visual integrators, value added resellers, and managed service providers the opportunity to complement their existing solutions by introducing the Blue Jeans service to their customers, without reselling it. Referral partners that introduce customers to Blue Jeans Network, will receive a one-time up-front payment when those customers purchase the Blue Jeans service.

“Since we launched Blue Jeans in 2011, we’ve seen tremendous interest from partners looking to complement their existing video conferencing portfolios with our cloud-based any-to-any bridging service,” said Stu Aaron, Chief Commercial Officer of Blue Jeans Network. “We’ve seen a lot of business come from referrals already so we wanted to create a formal program to reward those partners. With our new referral program, practically anyone can offer Blue Jeans to their customers without training, contracts or commitments. We’ve made it fast, easy and lucrative.”

The Blue Jeans Network referral partner program is available now. Prospective partners can request more information at http://bluejeans.com/site/partner-inquiry.

Blue Jeans also announced today new partnerships with ADTECH Systems, AV Colorado, NextNet Partners and Thresher Communication & Productivity, Inc.

Each partner will offer the Blue Jeans service to its customer base, providing a way to extend the reach of their video conference rooms to colleagues that can’t be in them, and enabling partners, suppliers, customers, frequent travelers and telecommuters to all participate in video meetings at anytime, anywhere and from practically any device.

"We’re excited to work with these new partners,” said Krish Ramakrishnan, CEO of Blue Jeans Network. “Blue Jeans is the first and only video conferencing service to bridge together business solutions from Cisco/Tandberg, Polycom, Lifesize, Microsoft and others, with consumer solutions such as Skype and Google. It is a natural portfolio extension for partners like these that already sell, install and/or manage video conferencing rooms and systems.”
