Tracy Bottomley founded eContact Services (eCS) nearly twenty years ago, after a successful career in sales and marketing at two groundbreaking organisations, Acorn Computers. ARM and Apple Inc. In the late 1990s, she moved into a business development role in the telecommunications industry, working for one of the first Best of Breed rating and billing vendors in the communications sector, Geneva Technology (latterly acquired by Convergys).
She understands industry needs, identifying leads within a fast-growing and the evolving market and is therefore fully conversant with the pressures on vendors and operators.
Recognising a gap in the market for a specialist lead generation company, eCS was formed.

A successful and growing firm, it has an unrivalled list of clients across the globe, including some of the world's largest and best-known companies. She is recognised as an expert in driving results from an industry that changes rapidly, guaranteeing success for clients and partners. eCS never fails to deliver results.
