"This is the first time that Intercomp Global Services embarked on this type of collaboration with SSON. But our team has been impressed with the professionalism in the way this service was delivered and all our expectations were exceeded. The webinar we delivered in association with SSON was slick and very well organized delivering more leads than we expected and we didn’t even have to leave the office! Intercomp Global Services is very much looking forward to become a long term partner with SSON"
