TouchCast selects Lifeboat Distribution to expand global footprint

TouchCast today announced a new collaboration with Lifeboat Distribution, an international value-added distributor for virtualization, security, business continuity and emerging technologies. Lifeboat will distribute TouchCast’s products to its global network of 4,000 resellers around the globe. 

“Video has completely transformed the way businesses communicate,” said Brian Gilbertson, Vice President and General Manager of Lifeboat Distribution. “TouchCast will help us deliver a powerful suite of products that bring the power of video to transform communication and collaboration in the modern enterprise.”

The first product distributed by Lifeboat will be TouchCast Pitch, a groundbreaking new tool for creating unforgettable presentations. Pitch turns every sales meeting, product demo, training webinar, town hall, executive briefing or educational course into an engaging experience that moves people to take action.

“We’re incredibly excited to have Lifeboat Distribution join our partner program," said Mitchell Bell, TouchCast's Vice President of Channel Sales. “With a history of bringing the most important emerging technologies to its network, Lifeboat is a natural partner in helping us change how enterprise communications is done by creating content that fits the way customer, partners and employees want to consume it."

Available for both Windows 10 and MacOS, Pitch includes everything modern communicators need to stand out in one user-friendly application: Real-time background removal that layers the presenter on top of their screen, dazzling virtual sets that keep audiences engaged, advanced analytics to measure user interaction, smart business templates with a slick design, high-quality stock images and videos, and communications courses from some of the best instructors on the planet.
