With 30 years of experience in the distribution industry, my passion is connecting with customers and industry groups on how I can help drive their business initiatives. Currently I direct field sales efforts for new business in both the U.S. and Canada across multiple teams of sales professionals. In addition, I work with about 100 distribution industry trade and buying groups across the US.; responsible for all phases of our alliances and manage collaboration to understand their strategic vision. Before joining Epicor, I was a former Prophet 21 software customer as a CFO / Operations Manager. I bring industry expertise on how to partner with large distributors and reach their goals in order to truly differentiate themselves in today's marketplaces.My tenure in the distribution software market has shaped my understanding of customer business needs, and how embracing new technologies will drive greater productivity and business growth.When I’m not traveling ~250 days out of the year, I enjoy spending time at home while keeping up with my kids and coaching youth sports.Please feel free to contact me at mlovelace@epicor.com
