Consult 2000 Advisors helps finance, IT, and procurement teams cut through vendor noise — auditing what you have, benchmarking what it costs, and negotiating what comes next.
We've sat on the vendor side and the client side. We built this firm to sit only on yours.
Michael spent more than nine years at AT&T before joining PAETEC, where he opened the West Palm Beach, Florida market as Director of Sales and built an award-winning team that grew to $12 million in revenue in five years. In 2009 he co-founded teXium, a Florida-based technology consulting firm built on a solutions-driven, provider-agnostic model — tailored to what a client actually needs rather than a single vendor's quota. He holds a bachelor's degree in economics from Rollins College and is based in Winter Garden, Florida.
Michael's telecom career started more than two decades ago selling internet and phone service to small businesses in Florida, followed by stops designing complex data networks at Cable & Wireless and working with large multi-location accounts at US LEC and PAETEC. In 2009 he co-founded teXium, where he led sales and marketing as the firm grew steadily across multiple industries. Today he specializes in translating technical options into decisions clients can actually stand behind — matching solutions to what a business needs, not what's easiest to sell. Michael is based in Fernandina Beach, Florida.
We work across the technologies most businesses actually run on — and stay current on the vendors behind each one.
Public, private, and hybrid cloud strategy, migration support, and ongoing cost optimization.
Endpoint protection, identity and access management, and security posture reviews mapped to real risk.
Dedicated internet access, SD-WAN, ethernet, and broadband sourcing for single sites or national footprints.
UCaaS, SIP trunking, hosted PBX, and legacy POTS replacement handled without service disruption.
Facility selection, capacity planning, and colocation sourcing across a vetted national provider network.
Contact center and CX platform selection, CRM integration, and omnichannel engagement design.
Every engagement runs the same disciplined way, whether it's one contract or a full infrastructure overhaul.
We inventory what you're actually running and paying for — including the shadow spend most teams don't track.
We compare your pricing and terms against current market data, not last year's assumptions.
We run vendor selection and contract negotiation on your behalf, at no cost to you.
We stay on as your escalation point for renewals, issues, and whatever comes up in between.
No obligation, no pressure. Just an honest read on where your technology spend stands today.
