Our company was rooted in our people, knowledgeable, friendly, passionate, and a desire to create the best solutions possible. It was my role to empower our teams with the knowledge and tools they needed to succeed with our clients. There were many tasks involved in owning and operating Sky Productions, Inc, including accounting, billing, sales and marketing, operations, training, and managing client relationships. Through innovation, we were able to break into new markets. Some of these include: Sky On Hold, an on-hold and messaging company for corporate greeting and voicemail systems.
