BitTitan Honors “Top Titan” Sales Winners for 2020
By any measure, 2020 was a difficult year for businesses around the globe. Despite these challenges, managed service providers proved their value to customers by helping them continue migrating to the cloud and empowering a remote workforce.
At BitTitan, that resilience from partners was matched by all members of our global sales team. A group of driven, customer-first people, the MigrationWiz sales team helped ensure partners were able to pursue and close migration projects, scope new opportunities, and ultimately keep their own practices moving forward.
At our Global Sales Meeting (GSM) in January 2021, we celebrated the success of the “Top Titans” – those sales people who went above and beyond the previous year to help customers meet their goals while also driving BitTitan to new highs.
Across regions and roles, the success of our partners is driven by the efforts of these individuals. Congratulations to all our Top Titans below! Read on to learn more about the familiar faces helping you scope and execute cloud migration projects.
