IT Promotes Don Pesceone to VP of Sales
Incredible Technologies, manufacturer of coin-operated video games, including the award-winning Golden Tee Golf, announced today the promotion of Don Pesceone to the newly created position of Vice President of Sales. Mr Pesceone, formerly Director of Sales, will report to President and CEO, Elaine Hodgson.
"These are difficult and challenging times for our industry," said Ms Hodgson. "Don's leadership of our sales effort for the past three years has kept us number-one."
"With two new products hitting the street this year and the release of the next generation of Golden Tee on schedule for next fall, it's the right time to recognise Don's contribution."
Executive Vice President, Richard Ditton said, "Don's earned this promotion through his hard work and the results he's achieved. 2004 will be a watershed year for our company and we could have chosen no better person to head our sales initiative. The one-two punch of Don and Vice President of International Sales, Bob Fay, makes IT well-positioned to continue its global leadership position in amusement game sales."
"Working for Elaine and Richard has truly been a pleasure," said Mr Pesceone. "Their leadership has given me – and the entire sales department - the ability to succeed in a tough marketplace. Leading our sales effort into the future is a challenge that I fully embrace, and I look forward to having a positive impact on our company and the industry."
Mr Pesceone, 39, joined IT in 2001 after leaving Successories where he managed its Corporate Sales Catalog division. During his 10 years at that company, he succeeded in increasing sales from $350,000 to over $40 million annually.
A life-long resident of the Chicago area, Mr Pesceone resides in Glen Ellyn with his wife, Jill, and their four children, Keith, Kelly, Jarrett, and Lauren. Mr Pesceone is active in many community endeavors, notably youth baseball which he has coached for the past six years.
