TechXpress, Inc. Begins Year with New Sales Manager and New Name

San Luis Obispo, CA – Local information technology services firm, TechXpress Inc., recently announced two major business expansions: the hiring of Sales Account Manager Alan Oden, and a name change to TechXpress, Inc., reflecting their new incorporated status.

Alan Oden comes to TechXpress, Inc. with 39 years of experience working in the technology field. The past seven years, he has been Sales Manager at a local computer company. Prior to that, he worked at Vandenberg Air Force Base for nine years as an IT specialist with Lockheed Martin Aeronautics.

Oden will be servicing TechXpress’ current business customers and generating new accounts. He has a special interest in developing relationships with larger businesses – a somewhat new market segment for TechXpress, Inc., whose main client base has been small to medium-sized businesses.

“Alan’s experience handling government, educational and large corporate clients will be a tremendous asset to the company,” said TechXpress, Inc. President/CEO Bryan Sarlitt. “His extensive technical background will be very useful to our clients in determining and understanding their technology needs.”

The Sales Account Manager position is a new one. Oden will take over accounts that were previously handled by Bryan Sarlitt, freeing up Sarlitt to focus on the company’s increased executive duties. Sarlitt plans to add additional outside sales staff under Oden’s management in the near future.

“I’ve watched TechXpress grow over the past several years and really liked the idea of an all-inclusive, technology service company,” said Oden. “I look forward to growing as TechXpress, Inc. grows.”

TechXpress experienced another landmark as it became TechXpress, Inc. on January 1, 2004. Although Bryan Sarlitt still maintains 100% equity in the company, he plans to seek investors in the near future.

“Within the next two years, we anticipate our local models will be complete and ready to begin duplicating on a national level,” said Sarlitt.

In December of 2003, TechXpress, Inc. opened its second office in Santa Maria following a year of substantial growth. In 2004, TechXpress, Inc. celebrates five years in business. Having started in 1999 as a small, primarily one-person operation, TechXpress, Inc. now has 18 employees and serves over 3,000 businesses and individuals in San Luis Obispo and Santa Barbara counties.

TechXpress, Inc. specializes in providing one-stop computer, network and Internet management services for businesses and residential computer users on the Central Coast.
