July Dealer Update
31st Jul 2001 - Dealer News for July
Sales Dept
As detailed in our last update we have some new members of staff in our sales department. Catherine Thomas joined us on the 16th July as sales coordinator. She joins the company with a sound customer service background as well as being fluent in French.
Following a period of intensive training, Catherine and Bev will take over as the Sales Co-ordination Team for Zero 88 and Selecon UK. This will enable Lorna Parsons to focus on UK Sales and Tracey Cheetham to move into a new role, where she will be responsible for production planning for the growing Zero 88 and iLight brands.
Product Retirements
In line with changing market needs and with the introduction of improved and more featured products we have decided to retire the following products;
- Sirius 24
- Sirius 48
- Level 12 (Old Style Analogue)
- LTC Dimming System
- Lightmaster XL
We only have limited numbers of these products available, so please contact the sales team immediately to place your orders. When they’re gone, they’re gone!
Product / Service Training
After PLASA we will be restarting our programme of regular Sales and Service training days for dealers. We are currently looking at how best to schedule these events and how we best cover our spectrum of products.
We would really appreciate your views. So if you have any specific training requirements or suggestions on how you would like to see these run, please forward your ideas to Keith Rogers. Direct Line 01633 833101 or email

Party Time!!
In last months update we dropped a few hints about a party that Zero 88 would be hosting on the Monday night of PLASA!! We had thought of holding a 70’s evening, but knowing how many of you enjoyed our Mexican night following the dealer meeting in February we have decided to go with a Salsa theme!!
Our Salsa evening will be held on Monday 10th September at Havana’s on Fulham Road, just 500m from the Chelsea Village Hotel and walking distance from Earls Court.
Make a note in your diary and watch out for your invites, which will be sent out to you shortly!
