06.25.2009 — SpeakerCraft announces that Jason Markley has accepted the position of director of sales.

Markley, who joined the company in 1990, has served in several key positions, according to SpeakerCraft. He has run the technical support department, managed the customer service group, spent time on the road as a sales and technical trainer and, most recently, been responsible for national accounts.

“I’ve worked with Jason for almost 20 years and have seen him excel in every position he has held," says Jeremy Burkhardt, SpeakerCraft’s president. “His experience in multiple departments gives him a unique perspective and experience that will directly benefit our reps and dealers.”

Markley will report directly to the president and will oversee all aspects of the sales process. He will be responsible for interfacing with 18 rep firms and three national sales managers will report to him as well.

“I am looking forward to building stronger communication lines with the reps and nationals and focusing on the level of attention and support we give to our dealers," says Markley. “Market conditions today require us to look at every opportunity for growth, but the fundamentals stay the same. Act with integrity and provide the dealers with the right products, incredible service and a willingness to do whatever it takes to succeed.”
