Rassbach Communications was started in 1957 by Don and Bev Rassbach out of their home in Eau Claire. Don was working for the City of Eau Claire and helping them with their communications. In 1957 Rassbach’s became a Motorola sub-contractor and was doing repairs and installations of all the Motorola equipment in the area. In 1969 Rassbach Communications was incorporated as Rassbach Communications Service, Inc.
Business continued to grow and in 1977 the business was moved to 404 Ferry Street in Eau Claire. The building that was purchased was originally used as a gas station and was converted into offices and an installation area. In 1987 Jim Rassbach was appointed President of the company. The first salesperson was hired in 1989 when Rassbach’s became a Motorola Authorized Two-Way Radio Dealer. Up until this Motorola had direct sales consultants that sold all of the equipment to the end customers.
In 1998 Rassbach’s had outgrown their location on Ferry Street and purchased a new building on London Road in Eau Claire. This building allowed us to have a product display room and more installation area. Motorola, in 2006, awarded us the MOTOSTAR excellence award. In 2007 Rassbach Communications celebrated their 50th anniversary .
2008 was again a year of change with a move to our current facility at 405 N. Hastings Place. This location allowed us to combine multiple facilities into one. In 2010 we were designated as a Green Business by the Eau Claire Chamber.
