Blokworx, a Top 200 MSSP, has appointed Dana Liedholm as its first VP of sales and marketing. Liedholm is expected to help Blokworx bolster its marketing strategy, brand management, lead generation and sales planning and execution, according to a prepared statement.
Liedholm joins Blokworx after serving as CMO at ID Agent, a Kaseya company that provides dark web monitoring and simulated phishing attack services for MSPs. She also served as ID Agent's VP of global channel programs and helped drive recurring revenues, profitability and customer retention.
Liedholm intends to explore ways to help the company's MSP partners deliver Blokworx's preventive cybersecurity services to their customers, she stated. In doing so, she could help Blokworx expand its MSP partner program.
Furthermore, Liedholm plans to roll out a modern new brand for Blokworx, she said. This could help Blokworx extend its managed security services market reach.
