Orange Announces Dealer & Sales Representative Of The Year

Phil Rich, VP of merchandising Sweetwater; John Hopkins, executive VP COO Sweetwater; Matt Duncan, senior category manager Amps Sweetwater; Jeff Radke, executive VP sales, CFO Sweetwater; Chuck Surack, president CEO Sweetwater; Eric Sands, national sales manager, Orange USA; Luke Zollinger, general manager, COO Orange USA; Suzy McDaniel, Sales Guy, Inc.; Bill McDaniel, Sales Guy, Inc.

Orange Amplification announced that Sweetwater Sound Inc. has been awarded USA Dealer Of The Year 2012 and Bill McDaniel has been presented with USA Sales Representative Of The Year 2012 at the Winter NAMM 2013.

Sweetwater Sound, Inc. surpassed all previous Orange USA Dealer Of The Year winners’ sales records in 2012. Sweetwater has nearly doubled its sales each of the last three years. This achievement is even more remarkable considering the guitar amp market has been down for the last few years.

Bill McDaniel of The Sales Guy Company wins the USA Sales Representative Of The Year for the second time. He has worked in the Midwest as an independent sales representative for over thirty years, and for the past eight years with Orange Amps. In a difficult economic climate Bill has substantially grown sales of Orange Amp over the last few years.
