Access Networks, an enterprise-grade networking solutions provider for residential and commercial markets, welcomes Michael “Willy” Williams to its sales team. Hired to support dealers in equipping customers with enterprise-grade networking gear, Williams brings technical expertise, industry knowledge, and enthusiasm to his new role as Sales Manager.
He will be responsible for interfacing with and driving sales from dealers, buying groups and manufacturer rep firms east of the Mississippi.
Williams’ previous roles include sales manager for Screen Innovations, SnapAV, Savant, and Nortek. Prior to these positions, he designed and installed smart home solutions for a systems integration firm in Dallas.
“I’m excited and honored to be part of the Access Networks team and to develop strong working relationships with new and existing dealers,” says Williams in an announcement. “At the same time, I hope to strengthen Access Networks’ position as a leading networking provider and a reliable resource for dealers who need assistance designing and servicing high-quality networks.
Having previously worked for two control companies in the smart home space, Williams acknowledges the need for enterprise-grade networking systems, like those offered by Access Networks to the viability and performance of a smart home environment.
“These types of systems simply don’t work unless they have a strong networking backbone,” he says. “I have seen first-hand how networking relates to control and can share these insights with home systems integrators.”
In addition to Williams, the Access Networks team continues to add highly-skilled engineers and support staff to both their East and West Coast locations. The new team members will help Access Networks continue to develop innovative networking solutions and refine its managed service and support to integrators, the company states.
