ACCE Names Pam Wright No. 2 Salesperson in U.S.
The American Chamber of Commerce Executives has named Pam Wright, business sales manager for the Myrtle Beach Area Chamber of Commerce, as the No. 2 salesperson in the nation in its 2008-2009 national sales contest. Wright accepted the award at the 2009 ACCE annual conference in Raleigh, N.C., earlier this month. In her role with the chamber, Wright sold 272 memberships this past fiscal year with a value of $84,865. MBACC competes in the $500,000 to $1.5 million dues income category with several other large chambers across the country. “The ACCE category our chamber falls into is extremely competitive,” said Diana Greene, MBACC executive vice president of membership programs & services. “Pam has been an incredible asset to the chamber for years, and we are extremely proud of her accomplishments.” Wright has placed first, second or third 1998-1999 and 2001-2002 through 2008-2009. In 2006-2007, ACCE named Wright as the No. 1 salesperson of the year. “Pam has continued to set the standard for membership sales for almost a decade,” said Carrie Subity, 2009 Circle of Champions chair, ACCE Membership Development Division. “On behalf of the entire Circle of Champions Advisory Team I would like to congratulate her on her tremendous success in 2009.” The sales contest inspires and recognizes excellence in membership sales performance. To compete, sales professionals submit their quarterly sales figures. The top 10 sales professionals in each of the four dues income categories are recognized based on the total number of individual sales and on total dollar amount.
