After selling Symmetry Networks to this business, I was brought on to transition and also support the development of a high functioning Sales and Marketing team in preparation for an eventual sale. The strategic objective was to expand and simplify the range of telecommunication services sold through one integrated technology platform backed by hosted and managed services. This required a SaaS and IaaS approach to the sales and marketing methodology.

Successfully built a start up cloud, hosted telephony, data services and software business focused on SMB and Mid-Market customers. The strength of this business was the sales and service methodology that provided IaaS, PaaS and SaaS approach to the customer experience, effectively providing one managed approach in an environment where multiple technology and telecommunications partnerships existed. This business was acquired with a strong, high value Mid - Market customer base driven by subscription and reoccurring revenue.
