Account Manager of the week, TIm Spehert

Tim has been setting the pace with his hard work and dedication to his goals.  Tim has been absolutely crushing it as others in the office try to keep up. Tim served in the Army in his early years and credits that for much of his discipline today. He has also been known to be a great cook. His favorite thing to cook is Alfredo Chicken Lasagna! Did you even know that was possible?  We all can't wait to try it.

Congratulations on all your success Tim.

The Grand Rapids Gang Shook Things UP!

This week we had a couple different groups visiting see our market and Management Training program.  The Grand Rapids gang has stayed for the entire week and will head back this evening.  Whenever there are Reps in town from a different market, it's a great opportunity to network and learn.

Memorable Moments:

"The" Dean Baker, Grand Rapids MI was impressed with the State Fair Corn Dogs available at the local Pick and Save.

Greg Blunden, Grand Rapids MI was a huge fan of dueling pianos at Lucille's in the Old Third Ward.

Kevin McDevitt, Kalamazoo MI  developed professionally and has moved closer to his goal of Account Management.

Success

Making some moves!

Jake is an assistant manager for the time being.  In a couple weeks he will venture off on his own to open his own office with the guidance of Kristy.  Jake started the management training program a year and a half ago and now will apply all the skills he has acquired in that time.  Congratulations Jake. We look forward to your future accomplishments keeping in mind the ones from the past!
