Mark Stackpoole Named a MVP Award Winner at 1st Time Event

April 21, 2015 - PRLog -- Mark Stackpoole, CEO of Global Telecom Solutions (http://www.gtsdirect.com/) (GTS) has been chosen by Corp! magazine as a Most Valuable Professional Award Winner. The award recognizes those professionals who are making business happen in Michigan — hitting home runs for their companies and their communities.

Mark Stackpoole is being recognized because of his true Detroit entrepreneur spirit and commitment to the city and surrounding communities. Shortly after graduating from Michigan State University, Mark learned first-hand – and from other business people – the difficulty of shopping for telecommunications services, finding a reliable provider and dealing with customer service after the sale.

To address these issues, Stackpoole set off with business partner Ryan Hathaway to establish Global Telecom Solutions (GTS). The company’s specialty is linking businesses with a variety of nationally recognized telecom providers and representing them in securing the most reliable, competitively priced packages while assuring the best customer service experience.

Since its founding in 2001, GTS has grown to more than 1,500 existing clients nationwide with a retention rate of more than 93 percent. Last year, the company surpassed $2 million in gross revenue. Mark leads GTS in its mission to be the best telecom services brokerage in the U.S.

Stackpoolewill be honored by Corp! magazine at an awards celebration on April 23rd at the VisTaTech Center in Livonia. He will be featured in the May/June 2015 Corp! print edition and in the April 30, 2015 Everything Business digital e-publication.
