About

Select Communication is a 15 year old, Inc. 5000 honoree that has proudly served over 1500 clients with a 96% retention rate. Most businesses I speak with are overpaying for their technology services (by an average of 40%) while experiencing these issues: *Dated, unreliable phone systems *Security breaches *Lack of integration between communication services *Poor customer service from supplier *Multiple invoices from multiple providers *Technologies not integrated This is because most business owners don’t understand what’s available to them in the marketplace and are therefore held captive by one of the big name providers who are only interested in selling them their products and services. When you choose to partner with Select Communications, we will provide you with unbiased advice when selecting from the 400+ providers we have at our disposal. We’ll provide you with side by side proposals, pricing comparisons and we manage all aspects of the purchase. We do all of this at no cost to you. Our proprietary software provides our prospects an "inside view" of all suppliers. This allows them to compare services, review the pros and cons of each supplier and compare rates before making a decision. Over the past 15years, our customer retention is over 96%, which is unheard of in our industry. We also offer a low price guarantee and don’t force our clients into long contracts. That’s why companies like Verizon Wireless, IPSOS, Atmos Energy, YETI, and many more choose to partner with Select. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Specialties: Telecommunications, Cloud Hosted VoIP PBX, PBX, Key Systems, Data Networks, Mobility, LAN / WAN, Conferencing, Collaboration, Unified Communications, SaaS, UCaaS, Video, Video Conferencing, WebEx, Adobe, RingCentral, Cisco, InterCall, President's Club, Exceeded Quota, Salesforce.com, Call Center, IVR, Streaming, Hosting, Outsourcing, Channel Sales, B2B Sales, B2C Sales, Sales Manager, Polycom, Lync, Office 365, Microsoft, IBM, MPLS, Fiber, Firewall, Channel Partners, CompTel, InterOp, Telephony

    I’ve been fortunate in my work with Select Conferencing to connect thousands of organizations with collaboration and conferencing services that align with their needs, goals and core business interests. In an industry where price points and product complexity often prevent organizations from making the most of their communication investments, I launched Select to help businesses bridge the gap between their unique requirements and make services available to them at the lowest rates in the marketplace. We are proud to have partnerships with all the largest providers in the commutations industry. This allows us to provide our customers with Global service and support while providing the best quality service in the industry.
