Russound Targets Low Voltage And Hi-Fi Markets

Starting immediately, Michael Stuart and Michael Gatto are serving in the newly created positions of National Sales Manager, Low Voltage and National Sales Manager, Hi-Fi, respectively. Both are responsible for implementing sales programs and providing overall support for their respective channels, with an emphasis on helping integrators, dealers and installers grow their bottom lines.

“Though we always look to support our customers with maximum efficiency, the current economy has encouraged us to take a closer look at how we can best accomplish this goal,” commented Charlie Porritt, Russound’s CEO. “We know that different channels require focused solutions, so it only makes sense for us to appoint sales specialists who are equipped to provide the best possible support, without resorting to one-size-fits-all programs.”

Both Stuart and Gatto are veterans of the company, having served their respective regions and channels as Regional Sales Managers.

In addition to the new positions, Mr. Porritt announced that John Sexton of Corporate Development will serve as interim Vice President of Sales until such time that the position is filled with a permanent candidate. This position was held by Mr. Porritt prior to his recent promotion. Mr. Gatto and Mr. Stuart will report to Mr. Sexton during the company’s search for a permanent replacement.
