Nancy Ridge
Vice President

Nancy Ridge has served national and key accounts in the telecommunications and utility industries for 20 years, acting in senior management positions the majority of that time.

She was principal of a successful demand side energy services company for 10 years. During her tenure, the company revenues grew 1,000%. Nancy was a leader in the energy management industry, serving on the Los Angeles Board for the Association of Professional Energy Managers and signing multi-million dollar energy retrofit projects with Prudential Realty, Beckman Instruments, Honeywell and Federated Stores.

She moved into the telecommunications arena where as Vice President of Communications for a leading cost containment consulting firm, Nancy created their Communications division and built it to a profitable business generating $2M in less than three years. Through Nancy's efforts, long term strategic alliances were established with top tier vendors AT&T, MCI, Sprint, Qwest, and SBC Communications as well clients she brought to the firm including Hyundai Motors, Virgin Entertainment, K-Swiss, and many other Fortune 1000 companies. Nancy built a successful direct sales team and "back office" staff to provide an additional layer of support to customers as well as systems and procedures for tracking sales revenue and profit. Nancy laid the groundwork for promoting the concept and service of Telecom Expense Management (TEM) during its infancy in the industry.

In the early 2000's, Nancy was recruited by telecommunications reseller, ATI, to create their distribution channel and lead the sales effort. Under Nancy's guidance, ATI focused 100% of its sales distribution through the independent agent channel and formed relationships with the top Master Agents in the telecom industry. In 2004, ATI was recognized by "Inc." Magazine as #41 on their list of Fastest Growing Companies, #5 in the Telecom sector having achieved over 2000% growth. Nancy's breadth of knowledge in the wholesale telecommunications market as well as her dedication to customer service and agent support was a key factor in the tremendous growth and success of ATI.

Nancy joined Telcombrokers in 2005 with a vision for creating a strong, interwoven network of successful agents, engaged and committed vendor partners and high performing direct employees. These forces join together to deliver cutting edge telecommunications solutions and outstanding service to the customers of Telcombrokers and its agents. Focusing on building authentic relationships while automating the processes has created an environment for growth of over 300%. Nancy continues to strive for excellence in the dynamic and highly competitive telecom sector, never losing sight of her underlying philosophy to be of service and have fun!

Stanya was responsible for selecting carriers managing the implementation of local voice, dedicated long distance and Internet T-1 services. "As the IT Director, Telcombrokers became a huge asset to me. They were able to present several cost effective options for our business in a non threatening sales kind of way and offered recommendations I could trust."

Looking for new challenges, Stanya decided to join the Telcombrokers team to help others who were in her position. Having been on both sides of the table, Stanya clearly understands clients' needs. She is a firm believer in the Telcombrokers model because "they demonstrated their knowledge of countless products that I never knew existed that would benefit my company and their commitment to customer service was second to none". Her commitment is to work with other IT Directors and Business Owners to provide them with the utmost in customer care, knowledge of products, and best pricing to be the single source to help companies make informed and cost effective decisions.

Stanya's outstanding organizational, administrative, interpersonal and project management skills translate exceptionally well to the telecommunications industry.
