Pleasant View Gardens has added Tom Pierro as a new territory manager. Pierro brings with him nearly three decades of sales and management experience. As PVG’s Northeast Territory sales manager, his responsibilities include customer sales and presentation of company products and programs within that region, maintaining and developing customer relationships, staying up-to-date with industry trends, participating in new product development and evaluating new market opportunities, as well as performing on-site merchandising setup.
“Tom’s ability to manage complex programs, teamed with his tremendous background in sales made him the perfect fit for us,” Andy Huntington, Pleasant View’s national sales manager says. “His focus on customer satisfaction and success is something that will help us satisfy the expanding needs of the Northeast. We’re looking forward to seeing what he’ll accomplish.”
Pierro’s sales and management background within the New England states makes him equipped to address the needs of that territory. That experience includes his most recent position as the New England commercial sales manager for Husqvarna, where he successfully managed his territory by building solid relationships and exceeding sales quotas each year.
Prior to that, Pierro was the account manager for The Brickman Group out of Connecticut, where he managed $1.2 million in business and renewed 93 percent of his customers year-to-year. Pierro was also the territory sales rep for 47 Brand based in Massachusetts, VP of operations for LawnTailors in Connecticut, and operations manager for Freshwater Farms in New Hampshire.
Pierro earned his bachelor of arts from the University of New Hampshire in 1994 and secured his master of business administration from the New Hampshire Graduate School of Business in 1996.
