“Shane and I have a business history of over 15 years and he is undoubtedly the most forward-thinking, capable and successful entrepreneurs .”

Alykhan Govani. CEO & Founder AirFind

"During my time at EzTexting, Shane was our fearless leader and CEO. I couldn't have asked for a better mentor and boss to learn from. He led the tech team with a deep understanding of their challenges and process, while seamlessly holding together sales, marketing, business development and customer service. His ability to both empower and train executives is something I still think about to this day. Shane is easily one of the most consistent, professional, patient and confident leaders I have ever had the privilege of working with."
Amy Baglan, VP Sales and Development, EZ Texting / Founder & CEO MeetMindful & Farbriq

"I was extremely fortunate to have worked with Shane at EZ Texting from the very beginning. As a CEO and manager, he was flexible in a way that easy to claim to be, but rare to encounter: deeply involved on projects when his expertise and insight were invaluable, but otherwise hands off and trusting that you knew what you were doing. Without that kind of executive leadership I don't believe we could have built EZ Texting into the industry leader that it is."
Joshua Malin, CMO at EZ Texting / Founder & COO VinePair

"Not only is Shane a respected technologist, he is also a bit of a futurist as he was ahead of the game when he created a product line that could also be utilized for private label, as was the case with EZ Texting. It’s the ability to see the big picture as Shane does that results in top technologies."
Vijesh Mehta, CTO and Co-Founder, CallFire

"Shane built an SMS platform that was ahead of its time and competed with CallFire until we decided to join forces and conquer the sector together. The consummate entrepreneur, Shane works hard, fast and with passion, utilizing his own resources and those around him to innovate and stay ahead of the curve."
TJ Thinakaran, Chief Operating Officer & Co Founder, CallFire

"Shane has an innate understanding of data and analytics for a technologist, developer and entrepreneur. This translates into a rare marriage of passion and an ability to apply all of his knowledge, enabling him to build great technology products and platforms that translate ultimately into happy customers. The EZ suite of products that he created and their continued growth at CallFire are a great example of the application of Shane’s talents."
Punit Shah, CIO & Co-Founder, CallFire

"Under Shane's leadership at EZ Texting, I witnessed a very small group of dedicated and fiercely loyal people grow a small operation servicing a few thousand clients into a thriving, and immensely successful organization servicing over 50,000 SMBs and Enterprise clients. There was no issue that Shane didn't have an answer for. He was always able to offer assistance, advice, guidance and remained a source of inspiration and support for me, as well as the rest of the team. A great role model and businessman, Shane is one of the strongest assets to our now-global company, and I'm beyond proud to be his peer within this organization."
Albert Cann, Lead Client Success Manager, EZ Texting

"Shane also is a multifaceted business operator. I have seen him drive product development with software engineers and incredible customer engagement through sales channels. I expect to see this serial entrepreneur do even more great things in the future."
Mike Hazzard Esq.

"Shane has worked with us at MX Telecom since the earliest days of group SMS in the United States. He had the foresight to identify what would become a tremendous and still growing market in its earliest stages."

Alex Moir, CEO MX Telecom (Now OpenMarket)
