The surge in demand from corporate, government, and institutional sectors, driven by the need for enhanced productivity and efficient working environments, gives AV sales pros a lot of opportunity.

In response to this growing market, Exertis Almo, a leading North American professional AV distributor, uses its expertise and robust infrastructure to position itself uniquely to meet this expanding industry’s diverse needs.

John Fuqua, an Audio Business Development Manager with Exertis Almo with an extensive 30-year background in AV, offers some timely sales strategies for AV professionals, emphasizing the importance of understanding the unique requirements of each project and customer, ensuring the most effective application of products and designs. “It is key that we spend a lot of time with our internal sales team, training them, making sure they understand what products fit in applications, and with our customers… to be sure that we end up with exactly what they need,” Fuqua says.
