Atlanta, GA. – December 17, 2009 – EcoSMART Technologies, Inc. today announced the hiring of Jim O’Brien as its Western Regional Sales Manager.
“EcoSMART is experiencing phenomenal growth in the western portion of the United States” stated Jeff Avison, Vice President of EcoSMART. “The Pacific Coast and Rocky Mountain regions have always been very progressive and supportive of green products. As consumer demand for our complete line of safe and effective pesticides continues to grow, so does the number of retail partners that are offering it to their customers. We are unique in that our technology has application in both the household pesticide and lawn and garden markets. That’s a lot of ground to cover so I knew I needed a sales professional who could hit the ground running and my thoughts immediately turned to Jim O’Brien.”
Prior to joining EcoSMART, O’Brien had spent 25+ years selling consumer goods into both grocery and lawn and garden centers for such companies as Thomas J Lipton Company, Central Garden & Pet Company and Calavo Growers of California”
“I’ve had the good fortune to experience a number of different companies in my career and knew that I wanted my next opportunity to be with an innovative company that had something truly unique to offer,” remarked O’Brien. “The rapid growth and feeling that I am contributing to the company’s success make working at a company like EcoSMART a pleasure. Plus, it’s an easy product to sell. Finally there’s a safe alternative that’s truly as effective as synthetic pesticides.”
