SIGN BIZ® INC. HONORS SALES CONSULTANTS AT REUNION 2005

A LARGE SLATE OF AWARD WINNERS MARKS THIS YEAR'S EVENT 

High Sales Achievement Earn Accolades

April 2, 2005 (Las Vegas, NV)--This year's Sign Biz International Convention was one in a million, according to attendees.  A million laughs, a million workshop kudos, and the Million Dollar Milestone Club Awards and more were highlights of this Reunion event. 

Eight Sign Biz businesses were honored for achieving significant milestones in the growth of their businesses. A long-standing tradition of the corporation, Sign Biz has recognized a total of 15 Network Members for achieving $1 Million in annual sales. This year that tradition continued in fine style, with the introduction of two new inductees to the Million-Dollar Milestone Club.

In addition to the Milestone Awards, 2005 marks the ninth annual Sign Biz Sales Consultant of the Year Awards. This year's program paid tribute to two sales consultants on staff at Sign Biz Network Member locations. The published purpose of the awards is to “honor both Network Members and their Sales Consultants who, as members of the entrepreneurial community, are providing a solid foundation for future economic growth.”

First, in the Newbie category, which honors sales consultants who have been employed in this capacity for less than six months, the winner of the New Sales Consultant of the Year award was Carol Matava, employed at Sign-Age of Tampa Bay in Florida. Her average sales volume had already reached $15, 500 per month, and her peak monthly gross sales were $18,100. Accepting the award on her behalf is her employer, Linda Levitan, Sign Biz Network Member and owner of Sign-Age of Tampa Bay. She credits Matava's positive attitude and explains, "She did not let a car accident hold her back. She was hit by a car in December and broke both legs! She was out for two weeks and then came in on crutches, determined to overcome her physical obtacles. She demonstrates a strong desire for success and is very personable with both customers and fellow employees! We are very happy to have Carol on the Sign-Age Team!"

The Sales Consultant of the Year award was presented next, to Ryan Meyer, on staff at Wolfpack Sign Group in California. Meyer was in the sales position for less than one year, and now averaged $100,000 per month in sales. His peak month thus far reflected sales of $189,984. All attendees were delighted to applaud his accomplishments, and he was lauded by his employer, Peter Wolf, who says, "Ryan became involved in sales last June. Because of his extensive production background, he was able to create cost-effective sign solutions for our expanding client base. Although he has only been selling for nine months, the first quarter sales of this year again reflect his outstanding levels of customer service and the faith his clients have in his skills and our company's capabilities. His 2005 sales goal of $600,000 will easily be surpassed."
