"Excellence is the result of caring more than others think is wise, risking more than others think is safe, Dreaming more than others think is practical, and expecting more than others think is possible."

 

December 2008 Top Sales Winner

Avatel would like to recognize Fred Sternberg for Top Sales for Dec. 2008.

Fred received his B.S. in Marketing/Management Science from the University of South Carolina in 1982 and his MBA in Marketing from Georgia State University in 1987. Fred has been a top performer in consultative sales for over 17 years and in the telecom industry for 13 years. Fred’s achievements are in direct proportion to his commitment to excellence.

Fred’s achievements are not always defined by victory. Sometimes his achievements lie in the honest endeavor to do his best under all circumstances, knowing that on any given day, his intense personal effort may be the only thing that separates him from the competition.

Fred’s determination was born out of purpose...knowing that he is gifted for something and this something must be attained. It is never enough to rely on luck or natural talent. Avatel believes in Fred and will always help him face his goals.

Fred recently sent me a passage entitled “Continuous Improvement” BY Sam Maitz. I think it says it all:

“There is no sudden leap to greatness. Your success lies in doing day by day. Your upward reach will come from working well and carefully.
Good work done little by little becomes great work. The house of success is built brick by brick. Adopt the pace of nature. The secret is patience. A bottle fills drop by drop.”

Thank you Fred, You make a difference!!

Statement regarding Fred from Greg Stauffer at Flowserve Corporation

I count on Fred as my "go to" guy in tough situations. If I have a voice mail system or PBX down and I need a vendor to make quick repairs. I go to Fred.

"Some people dream of worthy accomplishments, while others stay awake and do them."

Avatel would like to recognize Laura Martinez for Top Sales for Nov. 2008. 

Laura is a great asset to Avatel and has gone through a challenging year while taking on more responsibilities both personally and professionally.  “Challenges" is too weak a word to deal with some situations that she has experienced. But she has succeeded in spite of them. 

   

                              

Laura’s true character is revealed by the clarity of her convictions, the choices she makes, and the promises she keeps. She holds strong to her principles and refuses to follow the currents of convenience.

Laura’s future doesn’t just happen, it is created…Her destiny is not in the stars, but in herself. She may need to follow in the wake of those who have gone before her, but what she does and where she goes is ultimately up to her. The attitude of initiative is an on-going state of exploration that is never finished…a journey that never ends." Thank you Laura, Your shining example is what inspires others to greatness.  

 Testimonial quote from Laura’s primary National account customer, Orkin Pest Control

  Under tragic circumstances in March 2008 Laura was asked to assume the management of our account with Avatel. Lisa had handled our account since its inception and was diligent in addressing issues directly, as a result no other team members had fully undertaken the multiple responsibilities involved with an account as large as Orkin Pest Control and it’s subsidiary companies. We all miss Lisa and know that she can not be replaced, but I have to express my appreciation for the superlative job Laura has done in her absence.  She has always been a pleasure to work with and gives her all for us, her team has also responded to the challenge which is a credit to her leadership and the example she sets. I hope she is recognized as an integral part of Avatel’s operation as she has been able to meet our high expectations from the beginning. 

Thank you.  Jamie Low Rollins Inc. ITC
