Cricket Launches Business Sales Channel in Denver

DENVER, Colo. -- Cricket Communications, Inc., a leading provider of unlimited local and domestic long distance wireless services, announced the launch of its Business Sales Channel in Denver. The new division, led by wireless industry veteran Shelly Palmer, will be based in the metro Denver area.

"We're extremely excited to bring our unique suite of affordable wireless communication services to businesses and governments in the metro area," said Shelly Palmer, Denver's Business Sales Manager. "We offer significant cost savings and reliable, high-quality, all-digital wireless phone service. Cricket is perfect for organizations and businesses looking to cut and control costs while not sacrificing quality. Since we offer affordable flat-rate, unlimited local and long distance calling plans, we hope to help many businesses and organizations cost-effectively meet their communications needs."

Cricket's Denver Business Sales Channel team will exclusively focus on businesses, nonprofit organizations and local-level governments, including school districts. Because of its unique, flat-rate pricing of unlimited talk time, Cricket is set up to deliver significant cost savings to cash-conscious businesses and government organizations. In addition, Cricket's new The Cricket ClicksTM catalog of mobile data applications offers businesses the ability to stay connected with access to POP3 e-mail accounts, text messaging or communicate effectively on the go with its new Spanish AnywhereTM language translation application.


Although the Business Sales Channel is new to Denver, the concept has been very successful in other markets. In Cricket's Nashville, Tenn., service area, the wireless operator signed a three-year contract for the Metro Davidson County's mobile phone program, which is expected to save the county $8,000 to $10,000 per month on mobile bills.
