DRAPER, Utah - December 20, 2007 - Telarus, Inc., premier telecom master agent and creator
of ShopforT1.com, ShopforEthernet.com, and VARNetwork.com,
today announced the release of a new private-labeled
back office software: VENUS, which is an acronym for VAR Enterprise Network Update System.
Telarus created VENUS to cater to larger VARs who have their own telecommunication
sales departments (aka "hybrid" VARs) and/or VARs who maintain their own inside equipment sales departments.
VENUS allows VARs the ability to set up sub-accounts for its employees and/or independent
reps, providing the administrator with a bird's eye view of all the activity happing
within the organization.
"This software is the key to our future with large VARs" commented Adam Edwards, president of Telarus, Inc.
"VENUS combines our patented real-time quoting system, proposal generation system, and
our equipment lead CRM that allow VARs to manage both incoming VAR leads from the VAR Network,
as well as telecom leads they work through Telarus. With VENUS, VARs make more money on
both sides of the fence."
"Developed over the course of two years, VENUS is a web-based management platform that allows VARs to opertate efficient telecom carrier
service operations" added Robert Butler, Director of Telarus' "VAR Network". "Sharing our technology
and opening up our upgraded carrier contracts is a win-win for VARs looking for back office
software that actually works."
Telarus actively generates telecom equipment leads to its VAR partners through web sites
like www.VARNetwork.com and other affiliated web properties. Using VENUS, VARs can then
assign these leads they receive to specific individuals within their own sales departments
for follow-up. Conversely, these users can use VENUS to match up their equipment clients
with the carrier service that is the best fit for their customer.
"Not only was Telarus the first Master Agent to focus on sending equipment leads to VARs
in return for telecom service lead reciprocation, we are the first company to create software
that allows them the ability to interact with us on such a deep level" added Andrew Morgan,
VP of Web Development. "Telarus' mission is to add value to others so that they can grow and become
lifelong partners. VENUS will play a key role in helping accomplish our mission."
