Major new sales representation and support package for publishers 
launched by ACCUCOMS in Europe and North America

ACCUCOMS BV, a leading provider of sales and marketing services 
to scholarly and society publishers, today announced the launch 
of a major new sales representation and support package designed 
to help publishers increase revenues from the important markets 
of Europe and North America.

"We are well known in the industry for providing professional and 
effective marketing services," said Pinar Erzin, Managing 
Director of ACCUCOMS. "We have a particularly strong reputation 
for telemarketing and outsourced multilingual customer service, 
but our clients have increasingly been asking us if we can also 
provide sales representation. They trust us to represent them in 
a professional and friendly manner and know that we will generate 
measurable results - these are the founding principles of our 
business."

"We have developed our sales representation and support package 
to meet a range of different needs," continued Egon Menardi, 
Sales Director at ACCUCOMS. "Large publishers with their own 
sales team may require tailored support for lead generation and 
also for generating business from smaller institutions while 
their staff concentrate on the larger accounts. Smaller 
publishers and societies will benefit from our complete sales 
representation package, which, within Europe, includes 
multilingual customer service support - it's an effective way for 
them to compete for institutional sales alongside larger 
organizations with in-house sales teams."

The ACCUCOMS sales managers based in Europe and North America can 
research leads, visit potential customers, give demonstrations, 
arrange trial access and negotiate site license access for 
individual institutions, large corporations, multi-nationals and 
consortia.

"Our service goes beyond sales representation," Egon continued. 
"We are also able to attend industry events on our clients' 
behalf. This can save them valuable time and money without losing 
presence in the market." As well as managing and staffing 
exhibits, ACCUCOMS staff can also deliver dedicated presentations 
and host meetings.
