APG has appointed Rodolphe Portet to the newly-created role of Sales Engineer for the Southern region of France.
With experience in electroacoustic R&D and technical support for pro audio, Portet matches APG’s new sales organisation, as the company seeks direct links with integrators and rental stagers in the French territory. ‘Rodolphe is the ideal profile and a perfect fit for our sales force,’ says APG Marketing & business Development Director, Grégory Dapsanse. ‘He brings deep knowledge in sound technologies and technics, which will prove critical to the development of the APG brand in France. He is also affable, trustworthy and honest, some key values that we advocate in our sales approach.’
Portet will be responsible for promoting the APG brand in the South and Rhône-Alpes regions of France, which are typically known for their strong seasonality in event staging and deeply centred on major cities for integration. In order to grow the APG brand in this area, APG is planning to organise large-scale demos in order to promote new generation sound solutions such as the Uniline Compact.
‘I am very proud to join a famous brand like APG, which despite its human-size, has been innovating for over 40 years and helped to show the way to modern audio in France,’ says Portet. ‘From the very first hearing, and despite its compact size, the Uniline Compact system impresses with a sensation of big sound, which can only usually be heard with larger format sound systems.
‘The Uniline Compact range boasts fantastic modularity, and can be used without further sound reinforcement in the low ends,’ he adds .’It is therefore perfectly suitable for a number of applications including sports and corporate events, concerts and festivals, as well as broadcast and live venues.’
With the appointment of Rodolphe Portet, the APG sales team comprises four customer dedicated sales engineers, providing daily advice and after-sales support.
