Checking In

Did you get one of these in the mail yet?













If not, I'm just checkin' in to let you know that as of October 1, our new S-TAD became the new standard in Tag Activator/Deactivator units.

Your previous TAD model will still be fully functional, but the model will no longer be available for purchase.

If you have any questions, please give us a call.

Is This Thing On?

Sorry for the near five-month hiatus.

*Sigh*

Sometimes it's hard to keep up with life and work, especially when a bunch of changes have been taking place!

Needless to say, I have a TON of news for you! So, stay tuned; I will be back later this week to fill y'all in on the current happenings here at Accutech!

Meet Bob

On Infant Abduction Prevention we promote our Infant Protection System line quite heavily. But, I think it's time for you to know, if you don't already, that Accutech doesn't JUST specialize in infant abduction prevention solutions. We also work with the long term care and assisted living markets by offering a superb line of patient wanderer security systems. For more information on our Patient Wanderer Security System, click here.

With that, I’m pleased to announce the addition of a new sales person to our already awesome Accutech sales team.

Our new team member, Bob Panagis, will be our Sales Manager for the long term care and assisted living markets. He comes to us with over 8+ years of experience in the LTC market. His previous roles include Regional Sales Manger for VT-Americas and Regional Sales Manager for RF Technologies.

Bob will be tasked with strengthening our relationships with our clients and prospects in both the LTC and assisted living markets by working directly with facilities, as well as, attacking the market from a corporate standpoint.

I’m sure Bob will be a great fit to the Accutech sales team!

If you'd like to speak with Bob to evaluate your patient wanderer security system or for a proposal for an Accutech System, give him a call at 800-356-2671 ext 1113 or shoot him an email at BobP@Accutech-ICS.com.

The Evolution of Accutech

As we continue to move forward by focusing on Accutech's sales approach within the market, our operations must evolve as well. As such, we have made some modifications to both sales and operations.

Effective Monday, November 5, 2007, Terry Gerlach will assume the role of Operations Technician reporting to Kurt Springer, Operations Manager. In his new role, Terry will be involved in many aspects of the operations including repair, assembly, test, shipping, receiving and other operations activities. Terry will also provide backup phone support to Technical Services for customer phone support requests.

The Inside Sales position Terry is leaving in sales will transition into a sales position that is more directly involved in outside sales with a focus on the Long Term Care market. This position is still being defined and we expect to fill this position from outside the company. This new position will report to Karl Radke, Director Sales and Marketing.

With this change in our business, Steve Chirpka will be leaving Accutech effective November 5, 2007. Steve will be taking a position with Vuance. We wish Steve success in his new role and thank him for his many years of service with Accutech.

Accutech is UL Listed

That's right! Accutech is the first infant protection system to be Security UL Listed!

Change is Good

Change is good, especially here at Accutech where our recent changes have been made with our customers in mind. Throughout the recent months, we’ve added several new members to our Accutech family.

As of March 12, 2007, Mike Busha became our new Western Regional Sales Manager. Mike’s background includes 15+ years in the medical/surgical consultant area, as well as, a Senior Account Executive with a Fortune 500 company for 6 years.

Mike is easy to work with and exhibits a professional attitude with a drive to provide his accounts with excellent customer service and support! Since March, Mike has proven to be a great fit for Accutech’s sales team and the rest of our family.

In addition, early this summer two of our hard-working technical support members moved on to the sales side of Accutech. Perhaps some of you have already met or talked with Michael Schmit or Terry Gerlach on the phone.

As of July 12, 2007, Michael Schmit took on responsibilities of the Northeastern Regional Sales Manager joining both Mike Busha and Chris Bachmann on the sales team.

Not only is Michael knowledgeable and friendly, his background in technical support makes him an asset to the sales team. He has the ability to work on many levels with hospital administration and nurse management by providing the service you’d expect from Accutech, plus the benefit of knowing the ins and outs of our systems, which makes for impressive services and support!

Last but certainly not least, our most recent change, Terry Gerlach, became our new Sales Consultant on August 1, 2007. As he quickly learns the ropes, he’s finding his niche by making a leap from technical training into sales where he works one on one with our regional sales managers and nurse managers assisting them in any way possible.

We are very fortunate to have our current support staff. Each member takes pride in working with you by providing unparalleled support and services. If you haven’t met your sales rep (and you should have), please feel free to give them a call. I know they'd love to personally speak with you today!
