LOS ANGELES – November 27, 2018 — Broadvoice®, an award-winning provider of hosted voice, unified communications (UC) and SIP Trunking services for businesses, has made another investment in its fast-growing national channel program with the addition of Brian Kelly as Regional Channel Manager in the southeast region.

Kelly brings more than a decade of experience in industry sales and channel management to Broadvoice. He joins the company after 11 years at Vonage, where he was an industry-leading channel sales manager. Prior to the acquisition of Vocalocity by Vonage, Kelly was instrumental in building the channel from the ground up. After the merger in 2013, he continued his role as channel sales manager and helped lead the first agent channel for Vonage.

"We've seen tremendous growth in the channel this year," acknowledges Tessley Smith, vice president of channel at Broadvoice. "With the addition of Kelly, we will help to solidify our presence across the country, expand our reach, and better serve our partners."

As Regional Channel Manager of the southeast region, Kelly's territories cover Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, and South Carolina. Along with growing revenue through the company's national channel program, Kelly will be responsible for partner recruiting, training, and providing sales support."
