-- Vertical Consultants is celebrating its 10th anniversary, which commemorates 10 amazing years in business! This is a huge milestone for the US-based telecom consulting business, which has provided cell tower lease expertise to thousands of property owners since 2010.
Vertical Consultants got its start in 2010 when co-founder, Hugh Odom, a former AT&T attorney, realized that landowners did not have the proper knowledge nor representation to negotiate favorable terms with cell tower companies. The landowners were being taken advantage of.
One of the earliest challenges Vertical Consultants faced was getting people to realize how much money was left on the table during a typical cell tower lease negotiation and to also be aware of the long-term pitfalls they could face by signing a bad cell tower agreement
While some consulting firms in the telecom industry are focused on the short-term for their clients, Vertical Consultants has, in the last 10 years, built a business that concentrates on the now and the future for its clients. This is evidenced by the fact that Vertical Consultants’ very first client from 2010 is still a client 10 years later.
Hugh Odom, President at Vertical Consultants, stated the following: “I am extremely proud that in the last 10 years we have been trusted by recognizable entities like Wal-Mart, Disney, McDonalds, USPS, Veterans Administration and the New York Housing Authority when they were looking for advice and direction regarding new and existing cell site agreements. However, I am more proud of the thousands of property owners across the United States, whether they be individuals, churches, schools or small businesses that we have been able to assist over the last decade”
Vertical Consultants has secured its clients approximately 500 million dollars in cell site rents over the last 10 years by not only being able to immediately increase rents for its clients, but by negotiating agreements that provide its clients immediate benefit today and, more importantly, the ability to see even more upside in the future.
Mr. Odom says “We’re delighted to be celebrating our 10-year anniversary. We started this business in 2010 with the goal of changing the telecom industry one cell tower lease at a time if needed. We have done that by both educating our clients about the industry and by being a strong advocate for them. Sometimes the toughest thing to do is to change the course of a river that has run the same direction for decades, but, when you do, the water tastes really good. We have not completed our job just yet, but the course of the water is changing, and we are proud to be part of that effort.”
Vertical Consultants would also like to thank friends, clients and all its partners for their well-wishes on this happy occasion.
About Vertical Consultants
Vertical Consultants was formed in 2010 by attorneys, real estate executives and telecom engineers that had worked in the telecom industry for decades. They understood that most property owners, through no fault of their own, lacked either the information or the representation required to optimize either a proposed or existing cell tower or rooftop lease transaction. Vertical Consultants provides clients with the information they need to maximize the value of any cell tower lease agreement they are presented, while, at the same time, protecting them from hazards they might not otherwise recognize.
