Makau Announces Partnership with iMergent
<p><strong>Orem, Utah — June 27</strong><br />Makau Corp. and iMergent Inc., a provider of e-commerce software and solutions for small businesses and entrepreneurs, have reached an agreement to provide StoresOnline Pro Merchants with access to additional computer, marketing and accounting training at reduced rates. </p><p>Under the terms of the agreement, Makau will pay commissions to iMergent for any training purchased by StoresOnline Pro merchants.<br /><br />Makau Corp. CEO Daniel Smith said this is an exciting relationship, as StoresOnline has many merchants that wish to further develop their business aptitude.<br /><br />“Many small business owners understand business relationships, but even people in Fortune 500 companies have deficits in desktop skills, customer service and negotiating skills — the difference being that often larger businesses are able to hire a staff to provide on-site tutoring,” Smith said. “Together, we are making such tutoring, often otherwise cost-prohibitive to small business owners, available and affordable.”<br /><br />Makau builds online training solutions for many clients including Dell Education Services, IBM Partner Channel and other fortune 100 companies. </p><p>Makau has a vast array of courses, ranging from A+ to MCSE and Office titles. Makau’s Professional Library spans titles from Sales+ to Customer Service Skills.<br /><br />"This agreement to provide greater access to training is part of our ongoing plan to deliver enhanced services and create additional value for our customers,” said Don Danks, iMergent Inc. chairman and CEO. "It will benefit StoresOnline Pro merchants through new services and expanded training capabilities.”</p><p>Jason Porter, iMerchant vice president of business development, agrees.</p><p>“We are excited at the opportunity to provide additional educational opportunities that will positively benefit our merchants,” he said. “Merchants will be able to download step-by-step, interactive training programs for use on their computers or digital media players.”</p>
