Timothy Ferencz Promoted to National Sales Manager at C1R

LOS ANGELES - Channel 1 Releasing has promoted Timothy Ferencz to the position of national sales manager. His primary responsibilities will include overseeing C1R's domestic sales department and serving as the primary contact for the company's international sales team.

"Timothy has spent the last four years building strong relationships with our valuableĀ  clients," said director of distribution and C1R partner Jefferson Hitchcock. "Between his exceptional knowledge of our products and the tireless dedication he brings to the job, we felt he was the perfect fit for the position."

Originally from Chicago, Ferencz received a bachelor's degree from the University of Illinois and has 15 years of progressive business-to-business sales experience in consumer products. For the past four years he served as senior sales executive for C1R, and during that time he landed several new key accounts and worked with clients in the distribution, wholesale and website fulfillment channels, according to Hitchcock.

"I am very excited to be stepping into my new position as national sales manager," Ferencz said. "I have been privileged to witness and be a part of the tremendous growth C1R has experienced over the last four years. C1R's recent acquisitions of All Worlds Video and Catalina Video make C1R the largest gay video company in the world, and just as important, broadens the scope of the C1R brand. Our DVD library now covers the entire gay genre: jock, twink, pre-condom, muscle, interracial, leather, ethnic and daddy.

"C1R has become the name in gay adult entertainment," he continued. "I am proud to represent this great company in 2008."

Ferencz will be supervising the Channel 1 Releasing booth during the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo at the Sands Expo Center in Las Vegas from Jan. 9-12.
