Having worked on all types and size business networks throughout her career Susan knows how to find network solutions specific to client needs. Once you know the technology you are interested in, she then schedules a free consultation. During the meeting she not only points out products and solutions that add value to your business, but she discusses issues that may be a concern. Once you find a product you like, she creates an installation strategy that best suits your needs and schedule. An integral part of this strategy is to negotiate the lowest possible price and still give you the technology you want.
