TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / July 29, 2016 / Data Deposit Box Inc. (CSE: DDB) (OTC: DDBXF) (FSE: 2DD) (the “Company”), a global provider of cloud backup and recovery technology, is pleased to announce a significant increase in partner and client accounts and the engagement of two new Business Executive Development heads to lead NAS sales initiative.

Data Deposit Box has focused company growth by working with Managed Service Providers (known as the MSP) and with Managed Service Partners (known as channel partners).

“Over the past 12 months we have focused our business and product line to address a massive gap in the SMB business continuity market.

Tim Jewell, Found & CEO of Data Deposit Box adds, “Over the past seven (7) shows we have seen incredible interest in our solution and that was validated by winning four (4) channel awards against some of the biggest Cloud and Storage providers in the industry. We are now beginning to see the results of this recognition with the increase in created partner and client accounts. Our hard work is starting to pay off with this increase and positive growth.”

“Data Deposit Box has a perfect data continuity solution for the true Small to Medium Business market. After the first launch of the company’s new products and after the channel partner shows from Q1, both DDB wanted to accelerate their sale and marketing strategy; this is where In the Funnel will help,” says Mark Cox, Managing Partner at In the Funnel. Tim Jewell states, “Soon after we met Mark from In the Funnel, Troy and I knew we had found the right partner to bolster and accelerate our sales and marketing plans.
