Everything Channel Honors Two of ESET's Top Channel Marketing Managers

ESET today announced that Bonnie McMenomy and Carley Jaquess, two of ESET's top channel marketing managers, have been named by Everything Channel's CRN Magazine to the Power 100 Women in the Channel list. This marks the fourth straight year that McMenomy has received this honor and the first year for Jaquess. The Power 100 Women in the Channel were chosen by the editors of the magazine based on their professional achievements, as well as the amount of influence they wield over the technology channel.

"ESET prides itself on its dedication to its channel program and is thrilled that Everything Channel has recognized Bonnie McMenomy and Carley Jaquess for this prestigious honor," said Andrew Lee, CEO at ESET North America. "Their tireless efforts in the creation and launch of ESET's channel program framework and strategy as well as their collaboration with numerous partners has helped give ESET the global reach it has today."

2010 was a year of innovation and relationship building within the ESET channel as ESET successfully launched a mobile security application for Windows Mobile and Symbian platforms and ESET Cybersecurity for Mac. With those strong products and their support teams, McMenomy and Jaquess were able to turn their focus to a deeper understanding of the channel's local market conditions. Where many vendors made cuts, ESET stepped up to meet the needs of its growing channel and the demands of today's market. By focusing on the needs of ESET's partners rather than cost-cutting, McMenomy and Jaquess were able to collaborate successfully with partners and maximize their experience with ESET.

"This year's Power 100 Women of the Channel list honors the most successful and influential women in the IT channel. The Power 100 list is an elite subset of our annual Women of the Channel list, which recognizes the 100 most influential women of the channel based on their overall achievements, and their influence in the technology industry," said Kelley Damore, VP, editorial director, Everything Channel.

The Power 100 Women of the Channel will be listed on CRN.com. The overall Women of the Channel list appeared in the July 2011 issue of CRN Magazine.
