Huntsville, Ala., Feb. 25, 2010 – ITC^DeltaCom, Inc. (OTC: ITCD.OB), a leading provider of integrated communications services to customers in the southeastern United States, today announced the launch of its Exclusive Agent program. The new program promotes a consultative agent sales model with a focus on delivering full service, cost-effective, reliable communications solutions for business customers. Under the program, Value Added Resellers, equipment vendors, computer vendors and integrators become full service telecommunications consultants as Deltacom exclusive agents with a deep expertise in Deltacom’s services.
Deltacom’s Exclusive Agent program provides a number of benefits including:

“The new Deltacom agent program is a nice fit for Custom Telephone Service,” said Terry G. Perry, Custom Telephone Service, Inc. Vice President. “Deltacom’s service portfolio complements our equipment offering, and the upfront compensation structure allows us more financial control over our operating overhead, sales commissions, advertising and marketing expenses.”
