Mobile technology firm First Orion of North Little Rock announced Tuesday the launch of its partner program and the addition of two executives to its leadership team.

First Orion offers Branded Communication, which displays on consumers’ phones who is calling them and why with the goal of increasing how many consumers pick up the phone instead of rejecting the call because an unfamiliar number is assumed to be that of a scammer.

The firm’s Partner Prime Program was developed for referral partners, platforms, technology brokers and wholesale partners. Through it, First Orion said they can explore new revenue streams, expand their partnership ecosystem and deliver customers a technology that drives better engagement and business outcomes. Partners will also have access to training and other resources.

In addition, Mike Coleman has been named senior vice president and channel chief, while Mike Otting will serve as senior vice president of platform and wholesale.

Coleman brings more than 30 years of industry experience to the role. Previously, he was Samsung’s mobility channel chief. He also served as managing director of the Cloud & Hybrid IT business unit for Hewlett Packard Enterprise and vice president of sales at SAP Americas.

Otting has more than 24 years of sales leadership experience in telecommunications and technology. Previously, he served as the senior vice president of sales at Inside Response and as vice president of client services at Birch Communications.
