Technology Solutions doubles staffing, preps for 100% revenue jump in 2011

Since it began offering services for phone systems and data networks, Livonia-based Technology Solutions has become a one-stop shop for telecommunication services.

"We are a single-source solution," says Steve Futrell, CEO of Technology Solutions.

The 16-year-old firm has grown its existing client base with its new, bundled offerings. It has also attracted some new clients, such as Clarkston State Bank and Professional Pump.  Revenue was up 85 percent in 2010 and Futrell expects it to jump 100 percent this year.

This allowed the company to hire two more employees, two independent contractors, and two interns in the last year. That rounds up its staff to a dozen people, with plans to add more this year.

"We've got some large clients to potentially add," Futrell says. "And some of our existing clients are growing dramatically."
