e-talk Corporation (Company Profile, Past Stories, Case Studies), the global leader of Performance Impact™ solutions for contact centers, today announced the opening of its new office in Sydney, Australia where Tom O’Sullivan, director of Asia Pacific channel sales, will reside.

“During the past several years, etalk has created strong momentum and achieved global success through both customer acquisition and development of its indirect sales channels in this region,” said O’Sullivan. “We have found that with a rising number of major Asia Pacific corporations implementing sophisticated customer relationship management initiatives, they require integrating new technologies to help capture meaningful customer information. As etalk celebrates its 20th anniversary, I’m eager to continue extending the availability of our award-winning Performance Impact solutions to benefit the contact centers within the Asia Pacific region.”

IDC predicts the offshore contact center market in India and the Asia Pacific region will grow at around 40% annually. According to Call Center Magazine, Australia continues to be the leading location for pan-Asian or satellite hub call centers. Australia has a sophisticated telecom infrastructure, a highly skilled and multilingual workforce and comparatively low costs. According to Callcentres.net, 65 percent of Asia Pacific's regional call centers are located there.

“Tom O’Sullivan has a strong record of effective management in sales, marketing and business development,” said Scott Shute, etalk’s CEO. “By having Tom lead our Sydney office, we can benefit from his strategic and tactical strengths. We look forward to his contributions in helping our company better develop and expand etalk’s Worldwide Business Partner Program while having better access to our growing client base in the Asia Pacific region.”

O’Sullivan joined etalk after his tenure at Expanets, a leading provider of voice and data solutions and Value Added Reseller of Avaya, where he served as regional sales director of national accounts. At Expanets, he managed a team of associates in a 10-state region and covered all aspects of Global Account performance. His responsibilities included strategic relationship development, and developing software and hardware solutions for converged networks including IP, data networking, CRM and multi-media contact center applications. Prior to joining Expanets, O’Sullivan worked for more than a decade in several key sales and sales management roles with AT&T and Lucent Technologies.
