Magazine recognition is a reminder that we should.  Building a significant company is something that we can all be very proud of.”

Chris Rieple, TouchStar’s Global Director of Sales, commented on TouchStar’s formula for success:  “TouchStar has grown rapidly because we deliver fairly priced communications technology that helps businesses and call centers increase revenue and improve customer service.  TouchStar’s business has been steady despite the general economic slowdown because we serve multiple industries and every global market.”
