Lone Tree, CO – March 21, 2013 – Over the past several months, hundreds of IT professionals from around the world have been engaged in the SMB 150 Channel Influencers contest. The SMB 150, which is a collaboration between SMB Nation and SMB Technology Network, is the SMB technology channel's annual list of its 150 most influential members.

On Friday, March 8, 2013, Vince Tinnirello, CEO of Anchor Network Solutions, was named to the SMB 150 Channel Influencers List. Tinnirello joins a group of esteemed colleagues who were chosen during a two-phase voting process. In the initial stage, channel community members voted on 450 nominees at SMB150.com. Following the community vote, a panel of industry experts consisting of Harry Brelsford, (SMB Nation); Karl Palachuk, (Great Little Book Publishing Co., Inc.); Josh Peterson, (MSP Score); Dave Seibert, (IT Innovators); and Dan Wensley, (Level Platforms), evaluated each nominee based on a pre-established rubric.

"I'm thrilled to be in the company of such well-respected professionals. Building Anchor has been very challenging and rewarding. I'm thankful to my colleagues, partners, and clients for recognizing the success of Anchor along with everyone involved with making it what it is today," said Tinnirello.
