ATLANTA (August 29, 2019) – Rural Sourcing, the leader in domestic software development, is paving the way for software development in the U.S. As the company grows, it maintains a strong tie to it’s mission by growing technology careers in Middle America and delivering quality tech solutions to its clients. This commitment to mission and client success is evident in the sales organization, where Chief Revenue Officer Alex Bruce was recognized by the Technical Association of Georgia (TAG) as one of the state’s High Performing Technology Sales Leaders.
The TAG Sales Leadership Awards recognized high performing local technology sales leaders that embody the ideals of servant-oriented leadership and innovation.

“At Rural Sourcing, we want to build long-term relationships that last,” said Alex Bruce, chief revenue officer at Rural Sourcing. “Clients love our agile development model but they choose us because of trust. We provide a proven, low-risk alternative to offshore, and a highly collaborative organization that can scale to our client’s needs. From a sales and client success perspective, we are intimately involved in every project long after the deal is signed by making sure goals are met and success is achieved.”
“Atlanta has become well known for fostering and growing tech talent and has a world class sales leadership ecosystem,” said Kyle Tothill, Board Member of the Technology Association of Georgia. “A dynamic and dedicated sales and account management team is critical to any organization’s success. This is particularly true in technology where the sales team can play a critical role in problem solving and building trust from clients, before, during and after the sale.”
