BullGuard announces new channel partner in European distributor EET Europarts
A new strategic partnership that aims to counter the growing number of online threats through award-winning Internet and Mobile Security
London, 1st October 2013: BullGuard, the leading provider of user-friendly internet and mobile security solutions for consumers, is delighted to announce a new partnership with EET Europarts to stock its entire range of computer and mobile security products.
Specialising in computer and printer parts, home entertainment and lifestyle electronics, surveillance and security and point of sale and digital signage, EET Europarts was founded in 1986 and currently boasts 30 sales offices across 25 countries in Europe and Africa. With over 400 employees serving over 40,000 dealers in 2012 and handling more than 750,000 deliveries, EET Europarts is more than aware of the importance of security to its customers, and has selected BullGuard as the ideal complement to its “one-stop shop” concept.
“We aim to stay in front of the competition with BullGuard’s leading security technology, enabling customers to not only maintain but also develop their business in the face of modern threats,” said EET Europarts Group CEO John Thomas. “BullGuard allows us to deliver exactly that within this segment. According to U.S. Dept of Justice research, the average number of identity fraud victims is 11 million and the total financial loss attributed to identity theft in 2013 is 21 billion USD, compared to 13 billion USD in 2010. This is one of the key areas where BullGuard Premium Protection can help safeguard people against such threats and we are excited to be part of that.”
Premium Protection, BullGuard’s newest and most complete Internet security suite to date, delivers everything from identity and social media protection to secure online backup and top-rated antivirus. Other products available from BullGuard include Identity Protection, AntiVirus, Internet Security, Mobile Security and Mobile Backup, with the complete range to be stocked by EET Europarts.
“It has always been our focus to provide effective, easy to use products that can help protect users wherever they are, and whatever device they’re using to connect to the internet,” said Pete Morley, UK & Ireland Country Manager at BullGuard. “The emergence of mobile threats has added a new layer to modern security solutions, and we’re delighted that our adherence to countering these threats with ever-more advanced security has clearly been a factor in our emerging partnership with EET Europarts.”
As well as offering a complete choice of security solutions to EET Europarts customers, BullGuard sees the partnership as an effective way to expand its coverage across the globe.
“We’re delighted to be recognised by such an experienced and extensive company as EET Europarts and very much look forward to a fruitful partnership,” said Alan Case, Sales Director at BullGuard. “EET Europarts gives us a true Pan European footprint and opens up our distribution options into 25 countries. Our initial focus will be to complement our channels into Denmark, Benelux and the UK and to open up distribution into Norway, Sweden, Spain and Italy before expanding into other areas in due course.”
As a valued partner, EET Europarts will also benefit from BullGuard’s unique revenue share program, which allows BullGuard to provide channel partners with a percentage share of online revenue generated from subscription renewals. The revenue share provides real cash for partners to reinvest, enabling companies to actively grow their businesses and aiding in future growth. BullGuard’s Partner Lounge tool provides associates with all they need to make reseller revenue share transparent and easy to claim, including sales tracking, renewal and revenue accumulation alongside marketing, product and technical support.
