Visible Results USA Adds Key Staff to Business Development Team
OVERLAND PARK, Kan., July 3 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading global loyalty marketing
specialists Visible Results have appointed Steve Marquis as Director, Business
Development in its US office. Marquis will be responsible for driving Visible
Results' business development strategy and execution; identifying new sales
opportunities for the company's loyalty marketing solutions inNorth America.
He will report to George Stevens, Country Manager, Visible Results USA.
A veteran of the sales & marketing industry, Marquis boasts more than 15
years of experience working with the grocery, mass and drug retail industries.
His expertise in the business development world makes for a great addition to
the Visible Results global team.
"Steve's experience in the retail sector combined with his knowledge of the
Loyalty space was the key factor in his joining our team. The companies we
engage with want someone who really understands their needs, thinks like a
retailer, and can help them identify if Loyalty is an appropriate fit with their
strategic plans going forward," said George Stevens, Country Manager, Visible
Results USA.
"Add this to his high level of integrity and Steve's genuine desire to bring
a solution to retailers who are looking to change their business for the better
and you have someone who strengthens not only Visible Results, but our future
clients as well."
Marquis enthusiastically looks forward to working with Visible Results in
addressing the needs of retailers in the North American market.
"In my 15 years of working with retailers across all channels, I have not
come across a marketing tool that engages, excites and empowers as well as the
Graphicard(TM) platform," said Marquis. "Not only does our end-to-end solution
engage and excite the consumer, it empowers the retailer to make objective, fact
based decisions on how to impact RFM and more importantly, the bottom line."
Marquis observed that the challenges of the current economy had forced many
retailers to discount their product in order to increase overall revenues --
effectively eroding already tight margins. "Generating those 1-to-1
relationships with customers creates long-term sustainability and lifetime
value."
Before joining Visible Results, Steve started his sales career with News
America Marketing selling marketing services to Grocery, Mass and Drug retailers
inthe United States. After leaving News America Marketing as Vice President,
Retail Sales, he joined start-up FLOORgraphics as General Manager, New Products
where he successfully launched a new division and also took on the role of Vice
President, Advertising Sales.
He most recently held the role of Director, National Accounts for Imagitas,
a Pitney Bowes Company, where he was responsible for developing business
opportunities with Catalog Retailers and Multi-Channel Merchants.
