Nigel Williams - Linksys VP of worldwide channels has done such a terrific job of integrating Linksys with the Cisco channel that he has performed himself out of job!

Nigel states:

"The program has been in some flux this year, we have moved toward closer integration with Cisco's channel program, while still remaining dedicated to the customers that remain Linksys focused."

"In the end our channel customers will reap benefits of a robust program that should give them limitless support and maximum potential for growth."

"What we've done is move the worldwide channels role from a global role and pushed it all the way down to the [geographic] theaters, so the theaters now work and collaborate directly with Cisco to bring a better story to our channels of why Cisco and Linksys combined as we both try to penetrate the SMB space," said Rod Keller - Linksys Vice President of Worldwide Sales. Nigel Williams will be accepting a new position at Cisco.

Do YOU think Linksys sales will increase as a result of integrating with the Cisco channel?
