2015 Stevie Winners Use ValueSelling Framework(R) to Succeed
RANCHO SANTA FE, CA, 2015年03月03日 - (JCN Newswire) - ValueSelling Associates(R), the creator of the ValueSelling Framework(R), was represented by several winners of Gold, Silver and Bronze Stevie Awards for Sales and Customer Service who consistently use their proprietary sales methodology during the annual awards ceremony held recently in Las Vegas.
The Stevie(R) Awards are the world's premier business awards. They were created in 2002 to honor and generate public recognition of the achievements and positive contributions of organizations and working professionals worldwide. In short order the Stevie has become one of the world's most coveted prizes.
The Stevie Awards for Sales & Customer Service are the world's top sales awards, business development awards, contact center awards, and customer service awards. The Stevie Awards organizes several of the world's leading business awards shows including the prestigious American Business Awards(SM) and International Business Awards(SM).
The awards were presented to honorees during a gala banquet on Friday, February 27 at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. 500 executives from the U.S.A. and several other nations attended.
In excess of 1,900 nominations from organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry were evaluated in this year's competition, an increase of 27% over 2014. Finalists were determined by the average scores of 139 professionals worldwide, acting as preliminary judges. Entries were considered in 54 categories for customer service and contact center achievements, including Contact Center of the Year, Award for Innovation in Customer Service, and Customer Service Department of the Year; 50 categories for sales and business development achievements, ranging from Senior Sales Executive of the Year to Business Development Achievement of the Year; and categories to recognize new products and services and solution providers. The Business Development categories are new for 2015.
More than 100 members of several specialized judging committees determined the Gold, Silver and Bronze Stevie Award placements from among the Finalists during final judging earlier this month.
