<\/p>\nHere in the Philly area, we are still stinging from what was a debacle of a weekend in Philadelphia sports. The Phillies choked and fell to the Giants in game 6 of the NLCS, and the Eagles \u2013 well, I don\u2019t know what the heck happened there \u2013 but they managed to blow a nine-point lead going into the fourth quarter and lose to the Titans.<\/p>\n
Hey, congrats if you\u2019re a fan of either one of those teams and good luck to the Giants and the Rangers in the World Series.<\/p>\n
While we\u2019re on the subject of winners, let me get to what brings me here, now that you\u2019ve allowed me to vent. We\u2019re holding our second annual Advantages<\/em> Sales Rep of the Year contest and we\u2019re adding a spot for sales support staff this year too. So I ask:<\/p>\n Are you the next Advantages <\/em>Sales Rep of the Year or do you know one? Or are you Advantages <\/em>FIRST Sales Support Person of the Year or know one? Our January issue will be devoted to Advantages<\/em> Sales Superstars and we want your nominations ASAP.<\/p>\n Recognize outstanding sales performance in yourself or others.<\/p>\n In 2010, did you come up with something really creative that led to a huge sale? Did you have the largest sales volume in your company? Did you go way over 100% of your quota? Have you gone above and beyond for a client or your sales reps? If you think you or one of your colleagues should be a contender, e-mail me.<\/p>\n The winner will receive gifts and praise and bragging rights for the year. Oh and you will also have a magazine profile to show all your friends and family. Now doesn’t that sound special? Send either your 100-word-or-less entry or, if you’d prefer, your video nomination (you can even sing it or recite it in poetry; I\u2019m pretty much up for anything), along with a high-res image if you have it available: khuston@asicentral.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n It\u2019s time to toot your own horn or nominate a worthy colleague. Looking forward to hearing from you!<\/p>\n — Kathy Huston, editor, Advantages<\/em> magazine<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Here in the Philly area, we are still stinging from what was a debacle of a weekend in Philadelphia sports.
