Gino Capito and Roger Thomas have always had the entrepreneurial spirit.
Gino's vision was to provide the best computer service business in which he could locally own, and grow. In 2001 at age 30, he found himself in a position to sell his small business, Platinum Technologies, to a major NW Arkansas technology corporation.
Two years later he made arrangements to purchase Dixieland Computers with a business partner, Roger Thomas, and get back into the self employment environment.
Roger had been self employed with his own telecommunications company, TeleCompNET, for 9 years (since October '94). Gino and Roger met via mutual customers, and business colleagues. They started running into each other when a local business / Wal-Mart Supplier needed computers (Gino) and telecommunications services (Roger). Then, they started referring business to each other. The relationship was non-competitive, non-threatening because each performed a vertical technology function. This type of lead sharing and customer partnering relationship went on for nearly two years.

Since the beginning of TeleComp in 2003, the
company has grown to be the largest technology business locally owned (according
to the Northwest Arkansas Business Journal in 2006, 2007, and 2008) in the
thriving business economy of Northwest Arkansas, home of Wal-Mart, Tyson
Chicken, JB Hunt and Fortune 500 companies these icons attrack. The business
has continued to expand into the Little Rock, Tulsa, and Branson / Springfield
markets regionally. And with the continued growth of VoIP technology, and DR
(Disaster Recovery) Satellite deployment, TeleComp has deployed systems in
Chicago, New York, Dallas, Houston and many other US cities. TeleComp plans to
continue on it's strong growth path by sticking to it's core business: phone
systems / circuit installs and computer / server sales and service, while
catching new vertical technology opportunities that come up several times per
year, and riding the wave. It not only makes for a good living, but a fun
professional life. Gino and Roger plan on providing needed technology services
to all people and businesses, while having a heck of a good time.
And as
anybody knows, there are great players needed on every team. We encourage you to

comprised to make this a thriving technology company. |
