Despite the growth of Telecoms in Mexico, Mexican carriers have failed to consolidate a robust sales force in the United States.
According to official data from the LinkedIn professional platform, the salary of a Regional Sales Manager in Dallas / Fort Worth and surrounding areas in the United States has a base salary of USD 86,000 / year, on a scale of USD 54,400 – USD 136,000 annually. The costs associated with establishing a team, however small, implies an investment that so far has not been profitable.
Undoubtedly, Mexican carriers have enormous potential to market their products and services on the edge, but they face some obstacles that do not allow them to take a team to the border, like language barriers and high costs.
The MDC Marketplace remains an unexplored way to cover this need. More than a portal to find business opportunities, it is a free marketing and sales machinery available to our carriers.
MDC has deployed a series of initiatives at no cost to its customers, which would have an approximate value of USD 250,000 annually in the market, which is explained in detail in the following points:
An extended high-performance marketing team
Some of our Mexican clients are growing but have limited marketing teams, which makes it harder to deploy specific strategies and campaigns for the international market.
The MDC marketing team can help you with the following:
- Profile build in the Marketplace
- Advocacy within the ecosystem
- Pipeline Acceleration
Profile build in the Marketplace
The Marketplace is our main digital tool, it hosts the world’s leading ISPs, Content & Cloud Providers, and the most prominent Mexican operators in the industry. Its main function is to generate opportunities. A 100% neutral space where you can send and receive quotes with members of our ecosystem that may be interested in your business.
It is a simple platform with an easy-to-use interface, including search filters to help the user identify business opportunities and an internal messaging functionality to contact key contacts of other organizations.
The Marketplace is a tool designed to reduce the time and the costs of searching for interconnection solutions or opportunities.

We focus on valuable content material and avoid commercial content to respect the neutrality of our initiatives.
Some of the materials that we can develop together: webinars, blogpost, handbooks, and special campaigns, if there is an important launch that benefits the members of the MDC ecosystem we can create a joint campaign.
