Company History
AireSpring was born in 2001 when Avi, Daniel, and David Lonstein sold ADDTEL Communications, Inc., their privately held company who resold switched long distance, to SA Communications, Inc. The Lonstein brothers reinvested a portion of their returns into a new company whose sole focus was on the small to medium sized business market and called it AireSpring. The company began where they left off, selling switched long distance services. Over time, AireSpring has expanded its portfolio to include local phone service, dedicated internet, ethernet, MPLS VPN, and VoIP/SIP trunking services.

Distribution Channels
AireSpring sells its services through two channels: the indirect sales channel and the wholesale division. Both sales channels report to the SVP of Sales, Ron McNab. The top channel sales partner for AireSpring in 2011 was Telarus.
