New Hire Wins Salesperson of the Year Award

(Chicago) - Jack Coleman, a recent addition to the Cramtech Software sales staff, was recently honored as the company's Salesperson of the Year. Coleman joins Cramtech from the Parts Department of Randall Kia in Sheboygan, WI where he was a parts runner.

Coleman was an unlikely candidate for the open sales position at Cramtech which specializes in software for dental office management. However, according to those at Cramtech who recommended Coleman, his charisma and presentation skills quickly won over any skeptics. As soon as he accepted the offer to work at Cramtech, word about Jack tore through HR like a rabies maddened raccoon. Tanya Offerman interviewed Mr. Coleman and could barely contain her enthusiasm. "As soon as he came in for that initial interview, I could feel that he wanted to help all of us be better", Offerman gushed. "He has absolutely raised the bar here".

The infection quickly spread and soon the entire sales floor and support staff were lockjawed and foaming at the mouth. "The economy has hit us just like many companies," said Art Findlay, VP of Sales. "But when we heard Jack had signed his offer we were absolutely giddy with excitement. When he finally got here on his first day and I brought him in, everyone on the floor gave him a spontaneous standing ovation. Leading him to his desk through the cheers and applause was my proudest professional moment".

Members of Mr. Coleman's New Employee Orientation Class were emphatic about their colleague's selection. "We know how tough it's going to be out there in a sales environment," said Gloria Feinbaum, also a new member of the sales force. She dabs at her eyes as she tries to compose herself. "But when he speaks to us, all of us just think, 'Yes we can!'".

The award was announced on the final day of Mr. Coleman's two-week Orientation Class. "I am both surprised and deeply humbled. To be honest, I don't feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who've been honored by this prize. I just can't wait to close that first sale."
