Great news! We just won the 2024 Google Cloud Sales Partner of the
Year Award! We’re being recognized for our innovative thinking, standout customer
service, and best-in-class use of Google Cloud products and services.
"Our team's hard work has led us to this point, which many might see as the journey's end, but for us, it's just the beginning," proclaims CEO Mike Strohl.
The journey to the top wasn't a solo endeavor. As Rob Schaeffer, President and CRO, reflects, "This has been a journey together, with friends and people that want to invest in each other's success." It's a journey marked by partnership and the shared goal of excelling in the ever-evolving world of cloud technology.
Director of Strategic Alliances and Partnerships, Sarah Mergeanian, recognizes the impact of such recognition: "The validation of winning this award...is like the stamp of approval from our peers at Google that we need to continue on the path that we're doing to achieve more and more."
The route to success included gaining key Google Cloud specializations in infrastructure and migration. Kevin Kohn, Vice President of Cloud Services, notes, "The fact that we achieved these two specializations in a short amount of time demonstrates that our team has the depth and technical breadth to address almost any use case that our customers encounter."
Underpinning these achievements is a culture of continuous learning and innovation. "You can't rely on other certifications that you've had in the past... So we dug in, we committed, and now they're recognizing us for that," says Mike Strohl, emphasizing the dedication to staying ahead of the curve.
Every member of the e360 team played a role in reaching this milestone. Kevin Kohn credits the collective strength: "We can achieve great things with the right people, in the right places, with the right skills, and that's exactly what our team represents."
Sarah Mergeanian highlights the collective effort, "It really is a group effort, and no one person can do this in a silo... everyone should be so proud of everything they've put into it."
In recognizing individual contributions, Mike Strohl gives a shout-out to Kevin Kohn, the leader of the Google team, and Mark Gardner, who led the sales charge, demonstrating commitment to the partnership.
As e360 stands at this juncture, there is a shared sentiment of pride and anticipation for what's to come. "It's an incredible feeling and an insane achievement that we should all really be proud of," shares Sarah Mergeanian, capturing the spirit of the entire e360 team.
With eyes set on the horizon, e360's journey with Google is far from over; it's an ongoing quest for innovation, excellence, and delivering success for their clients. This recognition is not just an end but a new beginning, setting the stage for the next chapter of e360's cloud adventure.
