Earlier this week you may have seen on the newswire that we upped that commitment with the hiring of AutoID industry veteran Kevin Hoostal as Channel Development Director. For StayLinked and our partners, this represents an exciting new chapter in the vital role the channel will play in maintaining StayLinked's position as the leader in modern Terminal Emulation solutions. ### Strengthening Partners and Resellers In his new role, Kevin will focus upon expanding and strengthening StayLinked's reseller partner network and program. He'll also be responsible for enabling the channel to successfully bring StayLinked's new products to market. "At StayLinked we value our reseller community as our most important sales channel. We focus our efforts on creating new Terminal Emulation-related technologies that meet the needs of our customers and partners," said Dan Hogan, StayLinked's recently appointed President. "Kevin has developed long-standing relationships throughout the AutoID industry by working with partners to grow their business through effective channel program strategies. His track record of building relationships, market expansion, and channel program implementation is a great fit for StayLinked in our current period of growth." ### More than 15 Years of Industry Expertise Kevin draws upon over 15 years of industry sales and management experience including key roles at Psion-Teklogix and LXE. "It is a very exciting time to join StayLinked as they introduce new, innovative technologies to the data collection industry," said Hoostal. "I plan to work extremely closely with our channel partners to make sure they get all the support they need so they can best serve the needs of their customers."   [![Screen_Shot_2016-07-22_at_12.30.56_PM.png](https://blog.staylinked.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screen_Shot_2016-07-22_at_12.30.56_PM.png?width=212&name=Screen_Shot_2016-07-22_at_12.30.56_PM.png)](mailto:kevin.hoostal@staylinked.com?subject=Channel%20Development)   To learn more about StayLinked Partners and Channel Development,** [read the press release at Yahoo Finance.](http://finance.yahoo.com/news/fueled-continued-growth-staylinked-announces-180000440.html)** ** About StayLinked ** For over 20 years StayLinked has been delivering world-class solutions for mission-critical, host-based systems in the warehousing, manufacturing, transportation, and retail industries.
