Interland is reducing the size of its business solution sales force and will focus on channel distribution efforts, the web hosting and services provider says.

The company says it also will consolidate its web site and software development teams in Atlanta. It says the moves “substantially reduced” the size of its field sales force and will “substantially lower our expenses.”

Interland introduced a series of business solutions last year.

“In the more than six months we have been selling our Business Solutions products we have proven to ourselves that we have many of the capabilities necessary to successfully penetrate this market,” said Joel Kocher, Interland’s chairman and chief executive officer, in a statement. “We have found, though, that we have some very significant opportunities to improve the efficiency of our delivery and the breadth of our solutions, and we will be focusing our resources on these objectives.”
