7 April 2010 Phone as well as web needed to seal deals
Simon Quick of Microscope reports on Invomo’s new white paper
A lack of integration between phone and web is undermining some reseller's chances of providing a good service to customers.
With most of the emphasis going into web activities firms have overlooked the need to ensure that those investments are backed up with landline and mobile phone support.
According to a report from Invomo the consequences of not providing a range of communication options are abandoned web sales that ultimately leave the channel and other businesses out of pocket.

12 January 2010 Invomo is now part of the GCI Telecom Group
Invomo has announced that it has been acquired by GCI Telecom Group. Trading as 'Edge Telecom' and 'IPI' the GCI Group is an experienced and profitable telecoms company. Invomo will add an important range of inbound telephony services, network and, most importantly, skills to GCI Telecom Group's existing portfolio of outbound telephony solutions and full range of corporate data services.
This acquisition is an excellent fit for both companies since, like Invomo, the GCI Group approaches telecoms from the customer rather than the technology perspective. The GCI Telecom Group is experienced in the telecoms sector and has expansion plans to grow organically and through acquisition. There will be greater opportunity for Invomo's present customers to benefit from the range of inbound voice and data services that GCI Telecom Group provides. This is good news for customers and employees, as the GCI Group is committed to growth and has proved this by its recent record.
New leadership comes with Wayne Martin (Group Chairman) and Don McQueen (Group CEO) whose focus is on maintaining excellent service and innovative solutions for all of Invomo's customers. A smooth management transition is planned with minimum change in the short-term.
The acquisition was successfully completed at the end of December. This is the second major acquisition for the GCI Group in 2009 and creates a group with over £40m of annual revenues and significant cash flow and profits. The GCI Group is committed to organic and acquisitive growth, having completed over eight acquisitions in the last four years (IP infrastructures Limited, trading as 'IPI', was acquired in September 2009). www.edgetelecom.co.uk www.ipi-group.co.uk

22nd January 2008 2008 REGULATORY UPDATE Last year was a challenging year for the telecoms industry. As well as dealing with the impact of various consultations around NTS, there were unpredicted events caused by the discovery of unethical use of premium rate lines in broadcast media. The public trust lost from the exposure of programmes ranging from Blue Peter to Brainteaser may take some time to restore, and broadcasters need to be convinced that they are working with trustworthy networks and service providers.
