Christian's Corner - New Goals, New Year & the New Gladiator Knee Brace

Submitted by Optec USA on Fri, 2012-01-27 16:51

I have been with Optec USA for almost two years and I always look forward to building stronger relationships with my customers and helping expand their product line for the New Year. I'm excited to write my first blog for 2012 and present our NEW Gladiator knee braces.

I have never been one for “New Year’s Resolutions” but this year I have set goals for myself on a personal and professional level. With that being said, I am proud to work for a company that also has similar goals in mind; to be better and work harder and than the previous year.

I am sure you have all heard the “buzz” going on about Optec USA’s new Gladiator knee brace line. Whether you have seen pictures on the website, received flyers via e-mail, or met with a rep during an in-service or trade show, we have been pushing this new product line hard and have heard a overwhelming amount of positive feedback.

Now that we have released the new Gladiator ACL Max, Gladiator ACL Lite, and Gladiator OA Max, we would like to challenge YOU to try our new product line! What separates the Gladiator line from other knee braces? Like all of our products; quality, ease of use, and better service will continue to separate us from other companies and continues to make us a leader in orthotic fabrication.

I hope our new product line and the new year meets and exceeds your expectations and you can reach all your goals. I look forward to getting more feedback throughout the year. After all it is you who helps Optec grow each and every year.

Sincerely,

Christian Sharple
 

Christian's Corner - Optec USA's Christian Sharple Reflects on 2011 and Beyond

Submitted by Optec USA on Wed, 2011-12-14 16:20

Hi Everyone!!! Optec USA has had a very successful 2011 year, and we would like to thank YOU. Although I’m an “In-House” Sales Representative I have loved taking the opportunity to travel a few times this year.


Attending the 37th Academy Annual Meeting in Orlando was a great experience. During the show I was able to meet a lot of new customers and also had the chance to meet up with some old friends as well.


The AOPA event in Vegas was amazing, traveling to Vegas alone was quite an experience. During this show I managed to meet many Optec customers for across the US as well as internationally. It’s always a pleasure to meet people from other countries and learn more about their culture and the way the orthotics industry differs from country to country.


And what better way to wrap up the year rather than in your hometown? Atlanta Medtrade not only gave me the opportunity help represent the company but also made me more aware of the competitive bidding issues going on today. With all the information the associations provided for me during the show, I plan to help Optec’s customers become more aware of the issues arising. We all have to work together to strengthen our industry.
As Optec continues to grow we hope that you will grow with us. Not only are we going to be more involved in this social media frenzy but we will also be launching several new lines of products in 2012! So please continue to follow Optec and my blog to keep up to date with our new products, services and helpful advice so we can all make 2012 an even more successful in the year. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!!
