LAS
VEGAS - AVN
presented Paradise Marketing Services an "Award of Excellence" earlier
this month at the 2008 Adult
Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas
for the company's 30th anniversary.
The event marks three decades of Paradise serving the adult business with
category-leading health products, including condoms and personal lubricants.
Tony Lovett, publisher and editor in chief of Adult Novelty Business, presented
Paradise Marketing Services the award for its outstanding achievement,
innovation, continuing excellence and positive effect on the adult business as
a whole.
"I'm so proud of what we've accomplished so far," Dennis
Paradise said. "We have a great team. Their enthusiasm, professionalism and
ethics have been the foundation of our continuing support from our customers.
Helping our retailing partners understand that profits are built around strong
products, instead of inflated profit percentages, has made all our businesses
stronger. We're most humble and proud to accept this honor."
"Working for Paradise Marketing has been like getting my own
MBA," said Ken Eckert, the company's vice president of sales. "Learning how to
promote our customers' best interests by helping them increase their inventory
turns, category management, results in increased bottom lines for them and stronger
customer loyalty for us. It's been quite a learning experience."
Lovett said he also has learned from Paradise.
"Dennis is a walking encyclopedia of information about our
industry, and I owe him a debt of gratitude for his generosity in sharing that
knowledge with me," he said. "ANB is
proud to be able to honor Dennis, Ken and Paradise Marketing on this momentous
occasion."
"We are happy about our past, but our focus is definitely
looking forward," Paradise
added.
