A spokesman for Southwestern
‘11 Telephone Co., Don Lottmann,
"■gfd "there’s no question that there is
ei ■ igitimate and significant competi-
|ii'n from the interconnect com-
nies.
Given our chance, we fully ex-
:ct to win our share. One of our
Jrong points is our 102 years of de-
orP?I^iendable and reliable telephone
satisktieg trv j ce _”

111 r fc! the largest of the unaffiliated “in-
prconnect companies, which de-
e 7r‘'«gn, sell or rent private telephone
e *'to businesses. Among his
igcrtw Nearly 2,000 clients are IBM, Wes-
Bnghovise, Panasonic, Xerox, May
Ko. and the Federal Reserve Bank of
St. Louis.
nfiCOl Oken's company, with the help of
8 Icomputers, determines the tele-
inac: ■^ one requirements of his clients by
ict ui B na ^ zin g calling patterns and other
thifc ffl*ff )rma tion. The company then
eiM- P a ^ es seed' recommendations as to
'here additional equipment may be
ceded and how long-distance calls
iay be routed through the most
conomical ways.
The Federal Reserve Bank esti-
latesit will save $1.13 million in the
ext 15 years because TSI replaced
ofcbfjih phone system.
to illetii Olsen said in many cases im-
,vupk : |p r()v ed customer goodwill may be as
iupreBilgnificant as any direct savings in
Buipment and service costs,
j^. I “If I dial an organization and re-
(6^ eatedl y a bus y signal, how long
d fill it be before I let my fingers do
ne r.l, )e walking to the next listing in the
e !|l i sl ihone book?” he said.
® I Or I call a company number long
iistance, get the switchboard and
»k to speak with a particular sales-
|ian. I hear a click and I begin hear-
ng the salesman’s phone ring. After
e! rings, I feel this is ridiculous. I
I Want to leave a message but I can’t
get the operator again. I have to hang
Bp and call again and leave a message
with the switchboard.
A new telephone system can
andle incoming and outgoing calls
lore efficiently, Olsen said. TSI
ses computer printouts to monitor
he time and place of long-distance
alls to spot possible unnecessary
calls.
Bell’s top concern for the most
>art is to increase the cost of your
Service,” Olsen said. “We don’t care
iow much or how little the customer
[pends. We advise him of the best
ervice for his needs. It puts no
aoney in our pockets to advise him
use an expensive system.”
I Lottmann said Southwestern Bell
ecommends organizations take only
v hat services and equipment they
ieed.
It’s ridiculous to say we’d sell
Bore than what’s necessary,” he
aid. “If we re not competitive, we
lon’t make the sale. ”
For many businesses the ordinary
telephone is a minor part of the van
ity of communications devices they
J se for transmitting voice, data and
'ideo. Olsen said electronic fund
ransfers and changes in computer
echnology will ensure the growth of
iis company.
Olsen formed TSI in 1972 after he
left Areata National in California. Al
though he had never been in St.
Louis, he picked the city because of
'ts central location and what he con
sidered its conservative image.
I figured if it’d work in St. Louis,
ft would work anywhere,” he said.
The interconnect industry got off
ioipressively in the East and West
coasts but at the time it was some
what new in the Midwest.
