LAS VEGAS, April 9, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Carousel Industries, a leader in communication and network technologies, professional and managed services, and cloud solutions, today announced significant growth and momentum attained through its Agent Partner Program, which allows solution providers nationwide to bundle and resell Carousel's portfolio of technology solutions and carrier services.

This range of managed services offered through this program makes the Carousel Agent Partner Program unique in the industry.
"Carousel's Agent Partner Program is experiencing stronger than anticipated demand in areas such as unified communications, collaboration, cloud, and security from solution providers nationwide who are leveraging our total solutions offerings, comprehensive back office and project management support, and our 25-year track record in delivering a superior client experience," said Kennedy. "We continue to make major investments in all aspects of our Agent Partner Program and adding Jim Barrucci to our team underscores our commitment to channel growth and client partnerships."
Barrucci Named Verizon Program Director
A 20-year Verizon veteran with extensive experience in channel sales, recruitment, and direct sales to enterprises, Barrucci will be responsible for increasing channel sales for Verizon's solutions and expanding partnerships with existing and new telecom agents and MSPs.
"Joining Carousel in this key role is a natural next step and it will allow me to apply my knowledge and expertise to the entire Carousel Verizon team," Barrucci stated.
