About Us

Helping Businesses Thrive

We believe in getting results, building trust and having fun. Read more about our story, our team and our careers.

Happy Employees make Happy Customers

zLinq was voted the best place to work in Denver, and our employees love being here! Employee engagement is one of the core metrics we focus on. The Gallup poll we take shows that we are in the top 1% of employee engagement among thousands of companies in the US! To top it all off, we were voted the #1 Best Place to Work in Denver for the small business category.

We know that happy employees make happy customers, our clients love working with us. We have an NPS score of 81, which by comparison, sits high above the overall telecom industry’s dismal score of 27––exactly what we’re here to fix. We began measuring these metrics for the first time in 2019 and will continue to use them as benchmarks to improve. We also use RQ Core Strengths for every employee to greatly improve our communications inside, and outside, the company.

Our values

We have three core values that impact how we operate:

At zLinq, we live by three core values: delivering real results, building trust with every client, and having fun along the way. We’re committed to optimizing telecom costs, fostering strong relationships, and creating a positive work environment that drives both success and enjoyment.

Get Results

Everything we do is focused on delivering measurable outcomes for our clients. We take pride in cutting through complexity, optimizing telecom services, and saving our clients money. Our goal is simple: to achieve the best results, every time.

Build Trust

We believe that trust is the foundation of any great partnership. At zLinq, we build lasting relationships by being transparent, reliable, and putting our clients’ needs first. Your success is our success, and we’re committed to earning your trust through every interaction.

Have Fun

We take our work seriously, but we never forget to have fun along the way. At zLinq, we believe that a positive, enjoyable work environment leads to better creativity and collaboration.

Missions

Transform the communications industry in a way that puts a smile on the faces of our clients, employees and investors.

When you think about it, almost everything we do today is running over the communications infrastructure – phone calls, text, email, mobile apps, IM, looking something up in a database. It is the circulatory system for the flow of information within a company and around the globe. Today’s communications landscape is comprised of Connectivity, Cloud, Collaboration and Anything-as-a-Service, the sector is undergoing massive technology changes and seismic shifts in the industry leader landscape. It’s a vast industry that account for 30% of IT spend in the US and costs enterprises as much as 4% of their revenues every year. Communications is poised for change and transformation in an unprecedented way and zLinq plans to play a major part. Our name comes from a reference to the ‘last mile’ – the last stretch of wire or wireless access that in today’s super connected world links the end user to everything important.

Our Culture

Our focus to change the telecom industry 180 degrees

Big part of our culture is having clarity across the organization of what success looks like. Every SaaS company gets measured on four metrics: Gross Margin Revenue, Acquisition Cost and Churn. But there is bigger magic to building businesses than just dollars and cents so we added a 5th one: Employee Engagement. That’s a lot to remember and we had our team brainstorm how to make it easier and figured out an acronym GRACE.

Being clear on what success looks like, making employee engagement one of our key metrics and letting our people be creative is what our culture is all about. Only by bringing together different talents, backgrounds, and experiences can we lead innovation in the communications industry. We constantly reinforce our values, goals and mission in company-wide activities, marketing, performance management and team building exercises. We make building personal connections a priority and never miss a chance to celebrate together!

We are a female-owned company, which is highly unusual for technology, and we are excited to continue to bring up and advance women in technology as we grow. During her career, our founder has helped 7 women achieve highest ranking executive roles at zLinq and our sister company, IQ Wired.
