Consulting Staff to Meet Growth
AUCKLAND, 11 July, 2001 – Sales Technologies (SalesTech) today announced the appointment of six more consulting staff to
meet continuing demand for its Customer Relationship Management (CRM) software products and services, taking it to over
fifty staff.
SalesTech has already increased its consulting staff by over 20% in the first six months of this year to meet current
demand for its CRM and consulting business.
This follows a 26% year-on-year revenue growth.
“This move is a reflection of the company's commitment to revenue growth and market demand. With current growth
projections, we expect similar expansion of our consulting staff within the next year,” says Terry Gaze, General Manager
of SalesTech.
The new roles all include configuring and implementing CRM Solutions (including PeopleSoft CRM Software and Selectica
Internet Selling Solutions), for many of SalesTech’s blue chip clients.
“Our key objective is to take advantage of the opportunities the market is presenting throughout New Zealand, Australia,
and Asia, while supporting our existing customers.
“SalesTech is building on our strong body of knowledge and experience, which will help us broaden the CRM consulting
base as we expand our customer engagements. It’s an exciting time for SalesTech at present.”
The new SalesTech consultants are Ben Smith, Ranjan Amarasekara, Peter van de Water, Craig Horton, Chris Steptoe, and
Kelvin Gray.
All the new appointees will report to Terry Gaze.
