SOS names Jeff Palazzo Director of Sales

As 2006 got under way, SOS again increased its in-house expertise with the hiring of Jeff Palazzo as Director of Sales. While new on the payroll, Jeff is no stranger to SOS. For five years he was the Cisco channel account manager who worked with SOS and helped bring it to its current status of Cisco Premier Partner and IP Specialized.

In 2005, SOS company staff grew overall from 23 to 32 people. Among the new arrivals is Matt Recore, who joined in November as Convergence Design Engineer. Previously a senior systems engineer for Cisco Systems, Matt supported the largest and most competitive accounts in the San Francisco region. He was also the Cisco e-commerce specialist in northern California and co-wrote the "Cisco Internet Architecture Essentials Self-Study Guide."

Not only are top Cisco experts joining the SOS fold, but Cisco itself looks to SOS for advice. CEO Gia McNutt, a member of the Cisco Advisory Board Council, was invited in early February to Cisco CEO John Chambers’ Executive Staff meeting to discuss better ways that Cisco might serve small and medium-size businesses.
