CustomerLinx Acquires ETC Data Services
CustomerLinx Corp. of Alexandria, Va., a company specializing in Web-enabled, multi-mode customer relationship management (eCRM) services, has acquired ETC Data Services, a provider of custom solutions for customer service, fulfillment, database development and data entry services. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
ETC Data Services will now operate under two separate divisions, CustomerLinx of New York and CustomerLinx of Connecticut.

“Our mission is to provide seamless customer relationship processes for our clients. ETC allows us to deliver the robust analytical tools and responsive customer service required to garner higher levels of customer satisfaction, retention and lifetime value,” said Jeff McDermott, president and chief executive officer of CustomerLinx.
CustomerLinx operates customer contact centers in Oklahoma, Rhode Island, Connecticut, California and New York.
