ScanSource Announces Mobility Enablement Program For Resellers

GREENVILLE, SC – ScanSource® POS & Barcoding, the leading international value-added distributor of automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) and point-of-sale (POS) solutions and services and sales unit of ScanSource, Inc., (NASDAQ: SCSC), has announced MobilETC, a comprehensive mobility education, training, certification and partnering program for resellers looking to sell, deploy and support mobile solutions.

In addition to offering a portfolio of solutions from the industry’s leading mobility manufacturers, ScanSource provides a robust selection of services that allow resellers to more effectively deliver mobility solutions to their end-user customers, including Wi-Fi surveys, wireless assessments and network vulnerability tests.  ScanSource can easily configure mobility solutions, through key injection services, software downloads and wireless activations, and drop-ship them to the end-user on behalf of the reseller, saving them time and effort.  Through MobilETC, resellers can take advantage of remote installation support, programming and planning, ensuring a smooth implementation.  

ScanSource is also taking an active approach in educating its reseller partners on the features and benefits of the mobility solutions it offers, as well as providing certification programs so that resellers can more quickly and easily offer these solutions to their end-user customers.  Through upcoming vendor certification programs, live training sessions, online web seminars, and live and remote access to ScanSource’s mobility lab, which will be fully available in 2013, resellers can obtain the education they need, when they need it.  What’s more, through ScanSource’s SUMO partner matching tool, resellers can find manufacturers, independent software vendors (ISVs) and other resellers to partner with to offer complete mobility solutions.

“Our MobilETC program was created to help resellers be successful in all aspects of mobility – from learning the solutions available and understanding the most effective way to sell these solutions to gaining assistance in marketing their mobility offering and taking advantage of the professional services that can make configuring, integrating and implementing mobility easier,” said Yvette McKenzie, vice president of merchandising, ScanSource POS & Barcoding.  “We’re excited to help resellers enhance, strengthen, or even begin their mobility offering.”
