TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Cruisestock, Inc. ("CSSK" or the "Company") (OTCBB:CSSK) through its Chairman/CEO Michael Nole, today announced the appointment of George A. Pacinelli as President of the Company. As can be seen from his bio below, Pacinelli will be a perfect compliment to the top level executive team of this aggressive acquisition oriented consolidator of Business to Business (B2B) Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) distributor companies.

George A. Pacinelli, (49) is a longtime executive in the voice and data communications technology sector with over 25 years of experience. Over the last 4 years Mr. Pacinelli initially provided consulting for, and later held a Director position with TAMCO, a Telecom specific finance company. During this time he assisted in taking the company from 2 national telecom equipment dealers to over 100 metropolitan, regional and national dealers representing the TAMCO product.

In 2001, Pacinelli founded eTC, Inc - a telecommunications consulting firm based in Florida that specialized in providing consulting services to Telecom related companies seeking to increase the overall value of their business through the implementation of proven sales strategies and/or processes, as well as through the development of alliances with various providers of value added products and services with whom eTC, Inc. has existing relationships. Additionally, eTC assisted their commercial business clients with the design, specification, negotiation, contracting, and implementation of various Telecommunications technologies. Prior to his formation of eTC and since 1980, Mr. Pacinelli served in senior executive positions with companies such as Executone of Miami, which later became Contel Executone, Executone Information Systems, Inc., Executone Business Solutions, Claricom, and Staples Communications, which was, in turn, acquired by NextiraOne, LLC.

Mike Nole Chairman/CEO stated; "I have known George a number of years dating back to our days with Executone. As an acquisition oriented Company, CSSK could not be more fortunate to have been able to attract a President of George's caliber and credentials." Nole went on to say; " With George's background and knowledge in the industry and relationships with literally hundreds of both large and small interconnect companies throughout the country, he will not only provide valuable insight on the synergies and attractiveness of potential acquisition targets, but also assist us in accomplishing our overall business plans and objectives."

Pacinelli said; "I am excited about joining CSSK and my old colleague, Mike Nole. I truly believe Mike's vision and plan for the future of the Company is 'right on' in both timing and strategy in the dynamic B2B VoIP sector and this next generation of Telecom growth and change. The concept of combining talented people, best practices, and value added products and services that Mike has put together is exactly what is necessary to instill confidence in successful private companies to make the move into the public sector."
