Landslide Receives Honorary Stevie® Award for Pioneering Sales Workstyle Management


PITTSBURGH, PA - December 13, 2006 - Landslide Technologies, Inc. today announced that the company was honored by Selling Power magazine with an Award for Pioneering Sales Workstyle Management. The award was presented last week at the first annual Selling Power Sales Excellence Awards, held in collaboration with the Stevie Awards in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The Stevie Awards, which are recognized as the business world's own Oscar® Awards, began with The American Business Awards in 2002, The International Business Awards in 2003, The Stevie Awards for Women in Business in 2004, and now the Selling Power Sales Excellence Awards. The awards recognize exemplary companies and individuals among the press, business community and general public.

"While there are many CRM/SFA solutions on the market today, none were built with a specific focus on meeting the needs of individual salespeople," said Razi Imam, president and CEO of Landslide Technologies. "Landslide is designed to help increase the effectiveness of salespeople by understanding their unique workstyle and aiding them in performing the key tasks needed to close more deals. We are thrilled to be recognized by Selling Power for spearheading this exciting new category."

History has shown that salespeople readily adopt technologies and services that support their individual workstyles, improve their efficiency and improve their relationship with customers. Some examples include personal digital assistants, laptops, email and Web-based conferencing services. Landslide is the first purpose-built selling product designed specifically for the workstyle of salespeople, helping them maximize their time, deepen their relationship with prospects and become more effective sellers.

"Landslide is bringing the focus back to the salesperson with its 'workstyle' approach," said Gerhard Gschwandtner, Publisher of Selling Power. "Its unique combination of selling software and live assistant services empower salespeople to stay focused on the next step in the selling process, which in turn benefits the entire organization."

Landslide strategic selling software helps sales organizations easily establish a unified selling process for taking a lead from prospect to customer. The io Channel, a collaborative portal for exchanging information, creates a unique and compelling buying experience for prospects and allows salespeople to track buyer's activities and interest levels. Additionally,Landslide VIP assistants, who are included with the service, allow sales-people to offload contact management and reporting tasks to a real live personal assistant via phone or e-mail, so they can focus more time on selling.
