With a rich history of entrepreneurship, Mr. Leissner has demonstrated a profound understanding of launching and managing businesses in the telecommunications sector. His venture, WireStar, Inc., founded in 2007, embodies his commitment to introducing innovative communication technologies to a broader audience.

Early in his career, Mr. Leissner founded MailService.MS, a premium email service renowned for its cost-effective business model utilizing open-sourced technology. Under his leadership, the company flourished, reaching over twenty thousand accounts within a year.

The venture gained rapid success, amassing over a thousand customers in just six months, all achieved without capital-intensive advertising. Mr. Leissner's commitment to customer satisfaction led to strategic investments in a call center and an automated operational support system, distinguishing DIALUP.CC from competitors. The company expanded to over three thousand accounts solely through word-of-mouth advertising from satisfied customers.

Mr. Leissner, an alumnus of Texas A&M University's Mays Business School, holds two Bachelor of Business Administration degrees in Marketing and Supply Chain Management. In 2011, he earned a Master of Science in Management Information Systems (MIS) from the same institution.

Ruckus CommScope presents: WiFi - Bulk vs. Retail, Understanding the Challenges and Choices

 

This session will discuss the advantages of bulk internet for properties, such as enhanced tenant support and consistent coverage from 'curb to couch.'
