FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contract Sales Networks Combine To Serve
CRM/Call Centers In The U.S. And Europe

Two firms offering contract sales networks serving the CRM and call center marketplace have entered an agreement to provide combined representation in the U.S. and European markets. RainSpark Partners (California, U.S.) and EU-GO (Netherlands, EMEA) help evolving companies quickly position, market and sell their products and services to the contact center market. Each company provides a menu of services to help companies accelerate their time to market and dramatically decrease their sales cycles -- from product and market planning, beta test site sourcing, sales call appointments, account development and closing, to pre- and post-sales customer support. The combined networks seasoned sales consultants serve all major markets throughout the U.S. and Europe. Armed with market knowledge, operations savvy and thousands of key contacts, these sales pros help bring products to market quickly and cost-effectively.    

Now, any company that wants to create an instant market presence in the U.S. or Europe has a single point of contact for all or part of its sales effort", says John Reynolds of RainSpark Partners. We are a 'pay-as-you-go sales force; you pay only for the expertise and services you need, from sourcing to contracting. We save companies valuable months in set-up and hiring time, short-cutting access to key accounts interested in learning about their products."
   There is only an upside in working with us," says Hanjo Huizing, CEO of EU-GO. Companies headquartered outside of Europe avoid the financial and legal risks of setting up new offices, and hiring and training staff when launching their products in the EMEA. Later, when market momentum is building, perhaps they will want to hire a sales force. But at the outset, when funds are tight, companies want our approach. Our services are substantially cheaper than building their own presence, and well provide at least a 6-8 months head start in the market."
RainSpark and EU-GO will coordinate to provide service continuity and differentiation where appropriate. A full range of services is offered by both companies, including market research, analysis, testing, strategy, planning and development, lead generation and qualification, key account development, field support, sales effectiveness consulting, channel and partner development, and mergers-and-acquisitions support. Services are usually provided on a fee basis with a commission element as determined with the client.
