"I believe the true measure of a company is how it treats its employees which will ultimately determine how it treats its customers. I have and continue to enjoy a fantastic career with Tele-Plus. I attribute much of my success to the business acumen, work ethic and commitment to excellence instilled in me by this organization. No matter how fierce the competition Tele-Plus will not compromise our commitment to deliver the best possible solutions that exceed our customers expectations at affordable investments while providing world class service required to foster a long term relationship – period! It sometimes takes months to earn a customers trust and seconds to lose it.”
