Melbourne, FL - July 22, 2014 - HotAir Network Group (HNG) is pleased to announce and welcome Ryan McKenzie as the new Vice President of Sales and Strategic Market Development . This is the most recent strategic step in anticipation of new, innovated brand initiatives. The addition of expertise is also an imperative step in preparing for the rapid deployment of leading-edge hospitality Wi-Fi as well as guest internet related support services and solutions for North America.

In his new role, McKenzie will be leading the effort of high-level market development in brand/franchise relationships as well as direct sales to property management and property ownership groups. Additionally, he will be overseeing the regional sales initiatives and the rollout of the InRoom Connections brand, a full-service hotel HSIA (High Speed Internet Access) solutions provider.

McKenzie brings a strong technical background, a critical qualification with the expansive solutions under the management of HNG. He also has vast experience with takeover models including his work with facilities using Ruckus, Ubiquity, Mikrotik and other networking equipment installed. This will aid in addressing the needs of a market that is in transition from a poorly installed and maintained system into a well-structured and engineered solution to meet the oncoming demands of the hospitality industry.

“Ryan is an impact player and has already been able to step in and get a full handle on the next generation of services that HNG will be bringing to the market,” says Steve Gould, President of HotAir Network Group. “With the wave of emerging requirements in the hospitality market on its way and our arsenal of new technologies, Ryan is uniquely positioned to present our best-of-breed solutions to a market in need.”

McKenzie has more than 10 years of leading-edge experience in hospitality technologies through manufacturers, resellers and integrators across the U.S. To establish a higher-profile and a more regional presence, McKenzie will be opening the HNG Midwest office that will also serve West Coast markets.

“HotAir Network Group and I have a long history, crossing paths many times and in many roles,” states McKenzie. “I know without question that HNG offers the most customer-centric support and the best technical solutions in the industry.”
