Virtual startup incubator Propel ICT will present its annual Gerry Pond Sales Award in Moncton on Sept. 17, recognizing its program members that have excelled at selling their product.
The Gerry Pond Award is an annual, $25,000 cash prize in honour of former NBTel CEO and Aliant Telecom President Gerry Pond, who went on to co-found Saint John-based Mariner Partners and Propel itself. Pond is a ferocious champion of sales strategies, so the award in his honour recognizes companies that devise and implement successful sales strategies.
"This prestigious award, named after our co-founder Gerry Pond, recognizes a Traction and Growth company that excels in creating a repeatable and scalable sales process," said Propel in a social media statement.
