“Advantix’s solutions and reputation in the market made this an easy decision for me,” Renville said. “They’re a stand-up group with products, support and fulfillment levels that elevate them above other companies selling similar solutions. They’re also deploying a unique bundle that leverages their Blitz SaaS platform with carrier APIs, expense management software and end-to-end professional services to integrate, connect and manage any device and network.”

Prior to joining Advantix, Renville was director of channel development and sales at Kore, where he was responsible for recruiting and developing channel partners to sell its M2M and IoT solutions into small to large enterprises.

“Brad is an accomplished and well-respected channel executive with years of experience working with sales partners and their clients,” said Natasha Royer Coons, Advantix’s chief revenue officer. “He has an exceptional track record in the channel and strong relationships with leading master agents, distributors and partners throughout the country. He’s a perfect fit to help us develop our fast-growing channel program into a dominant one. We couldn’t be more thrilled to have him on board.”

Renville said the Advantix bundle allows partners and end users to manage an entire fleet of wireless or fixed telecom inventory, services, spend and contracts within a single system, as well as access analytics and real-time reporting that can improve business outcomes.

“It’s rare in our industry to get the opportunity to engage channel partners with a fast-growing and innovative company like Advantix,” he said. “I’m looking forward to getting started.“
