Rotary Announces National Sales Awards
In late July, Rotary Corp. recognized several team members for outstanding performance in sales and leadership during the company’s national sales meeting in Amelia Island, Fla.
The Duke Award, named in honor of the company’s late founder, Duke Harvey, was presented to Vice President of Sales and Marketing Mark Smith. Smith was applauded for consistently displaying “competitive and positive efforts” to ensure continued growth and success at Rotary during the past year.
Rodney Collins, John Howley, David Kaip, Bill Parker and Pete Toth were the recipients of outstanding sales awards. Each was commended for achieving excellence in sales and dealer support.
Rotary President and CEO Ed Nelson comments, “Our sales representatives are committed to building strong relationships with our dealer partners to improve their profitability through sales promotions, pre-season incentives and growth initiatives. Servicing dealers are the backbone of the power equipment industry and our sales team builds powerful partnerships with dealers to ensure their long-term success.”
