Northern Colorado Business Report
June 14, 2002 Issue
George Cretecos, director of
sales and marketing for Comm-Tract Corp.
in Massachusetts, said he hired Government Services
Group to improve his company's penetration in the government
sector. Comm-Tract is a systems integrator for data
networks.
Competitive
edge
"When I came into this job, technology was really
taking a hit in the tough economy," he said. "I
needed to think outside the box and implement tools
that would allow us to gain market share. I thought
of Kevin.
"I
got all my guys trained at the same time and we have
resources to refer back to," he said. "We've
probably gotten into a half-dozen major government agencies
in the last several months."
Cretecos
said the information and training Government Services
Group provides give him the edge over the competition.
His company paid a one-time fee of $3,500 for the training.
"The way I look at it," he said, "one
sale and I've more than covered the cost."
Scott
Marcum is the director of business development for Optimum
Management Systems LLC, a Denver based financial
software consultancy.
"We're anticipating somewhere around a half million
dollars in business due to Government Services Group,"
Marcum said. The company paid $1,000 for sales training,
databases and six months' consultation. Marcum said
that Wright was also able to assist the company in capitalizing
on the special considerations government entities provide
minority, woman-owned businesses.
Return
on investment
Tom Wiedeman, owner of Premiere Lot Services Inc.
in Denver, paid $1,200 for training from Wright.
He ended up securing a $9,000 contract just a few weeks
after initiating the program. While Wiedeman said he
is now focusing his parking lot striping service on
the private sector, he still considers his investment
a wise one. "Having a job of that caliber on top
of my resume is a huge advantage," he said. "You
get out of it what you put into it."
