Kevin Dutton

Founder

Kevin Dutton has been involved in the Computer Related Industry for almost 30 years. In 1979, Kevin started his career in the technology industry troubleshooting and replacing DEC/VAX terminals. In 1984, he joined Innovative Computer Products, selling to the IBM Micro to Mainframe Connectivity market. Representing Innovative, Kevin worked as a Regional Sales Representative selling to the Fortune 1000 customer base. Kevin was named the overall top producing rep in gross sales and margin percentage in both 1988 and 1989. He continued his technology career joining Rabbit Software as a Central Region Sales Manager. Kevin was responsible for an overall 19% growth in sales over the next 2 years with Rabbit.


In 1991 Kevin was offered an opportunity with a U.K. based company called Direct Technologies. Direct Technologies was looking for a way to gain greater market penetration in the South Central and Western Regions of the US market. However, instead of working for Direct Technologies, Kevin's vision was to start a reseller to represent Direct Technology and a variety of connectivity products. Thus, in October of 1991 Future Com was founded.


Kevin has been recognized for his accomplishments over the years with a variety of Vendors who have awarded Future Com with their highest merits. His ongoing vision of the technology industry has helped Future Com continue to offer its customers unmatched service and support of all the products it represents. Going the extra mile for the customer has separated Future Com as a leader in this industry.
