Over the years, Jonathan’s many contributions have helped PlanetOne grow into one of the top nationally recognized master agencies.
“Jonathan’s exceptional level of skill, expertise and technical acumen makes him a tremendous asset to both our partners, and the PlanetOne team. I’m honored to work with him,” said Ted Schuman, Founder and CEO, PlanetOne. “His deep understanding of the industry, as well as the opportunities presented by the pivot last year to work-from-home and remote work scenarios, has helped enable our partners in continuing to grow and monetize their businesses, despite the challenges we’ve all faced due to the global health crisis. We are excited to celebrate this win, and congratulate Jonathan on being recognized by CRN for the seventh year in a row, as one of the IT channel’s top leaders and influencers.”
