Tech firm hopes acquisition doubles revenue, to nearly $8 million

There’s no slowdown in sight at Lightspeed Voice.

About a year ago, the VoIP telecom provider moved from North Port to a 10,000-square-foot building on Triple Diamond Boulevard in North Venice. Since the move the company’s staff has increased from 12 employees to 31, and it’s continuing to build out the new office to ensure room for 30 more future hires.

Lightspeed Voice also recently acquired New Jersey-based the Follow-Up Tool, a lead-management automation system for the firm’s insurance industry customers, which make up 90% of its client base. It’s projecting revenues of around $8 million in 2018.
