D&M PROFESSIONAL NAMES
PCM MARKETING REP OF THE YEAR— Other top rep firms honored, as well, for their contributions to the
ongoing growth of D&M Professional brands —ITASCA, IL, June 27, 2005 — At the 2005 InfoComm Expo in Las Vegas, D&M Professional, parent company of the leading brands Marantz Professional, Denon Professional and Denon DJ, recognized its manufacturer’s representatives for outstanding achievement in the company’s fiscal year 2004. Presenting PCM Marketing with their Rep of the Year honor, D&M Professional established a new tradition to acknowledge rep partners who distinguish themselves in the areas of attaining sales quota, market development for new products or a specific product category, inside sales support and overall excellence.
Separately commended for Inside Sales Support, PCM Marketing has consistently fostered open lines of communication while responding adeptly with creative solutions. The Walnut Creek, CA-based firm made exceptional strides in helping many of their dealers take advantage of promotions and adding new dealer accounts. PCM Marketing principal Paul Morris enthused, “PCM Marketing is proud to represent D&M for their professionalism, their highest quality products and service.”
D&M National Sales Manager Betty Pawlowski commented, “PCM Marketing exceeded all criteria in the areas of sales, marketing, service and support to earn the distinction of D&M Professional Rep of the Year. The firm’s efforts go far beyond making quota — we looked at the performance of the organization as a whole, and willingness to adapt their business model to suit evolving market dynamics. The PCM Marketing team holds a key place in our incredible network of reps.”
Additionally, Audio Biz, Eakins/Bernstein, Online Marketing and SECOM rep firms were noted for Sales Achievement, Hudson Marketing for their Market Development in the DJ sector, and The D.L. Henderson Company as The One To Watch for sustaining rapid expansion.
