Telarus, LLC., the largest private-held distributor of business cloud infrastructure and contact center services, today announced it had hired industry-veteran and Mesa, Arizona resident, Tanya Palmateer, as its new senior partner development manager (SPDM) of Arizona. In this role, Palmateer will help existing Telarus channel partners expand their data, voice, cloud, and contact center practices, as well as recruit new, trusted advisors interested in leveraging the many technical resources Telarus has to offer. Palmateer comes to Telarus after having worked in channel management for ShoreTel, TPx, and, most recently, PlanetOne. “We are excited to welcome Tanya as our new Senior Partner Development Manager of Arizona,” said Mike Bettilyon, West Area VP for Telarus. “We’ve known and worked with Tanya for quite some time and know firsthand how well she performs when it comes to helping channel partners expand their UCaaS, network, and SD-WAN sales. She knows this business, she knows who the players are, and most of all, she knows the value Telarus brings to our partners. She’ll be focused on getting our valued partners in Arizona – partners who have never had direct Telarus representation – the education and resources they need to expand into the fastest-growing areas of technology brokerage: cybersecurity and cloud contact center.”

Over her 19-year telecom career, Tanya has developed a reputation for responsiveness, building successful teams, and always doing the right things for her partners.

The culture they’ve built over 19 years and the solid reputation of always innovating to help their partners punch outside their weight class has attracted me, and many of the industry’s top trusted advisors and subject-matter-experts to them. I’m excited to help them tell their story, one of building software tools for their partners, one of hiring the top engineers in the business, one of building financial programs to help their partners grow and to tell our partners here in Arizona what can happen if they lean hard into Telarus. This business is all about leverage, relationships, and execution, and Telarus has all three. From my time at ShoreTel and TPx, I have already met many Telarus partners am very excited to help them unleash their growth potential using all the 200 providers in our portfolio.”
