I\u2019m certain she\u2019ll be every bit as successful in this role as she has been when focussed solely on export sales.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ellis Patents\u2019 cable cleats are in demand around the world; with the company actively selling into over 40 di\ufb00erent countries, including the UK and Ireland, through a network of local distributors. This network is extended with each new territory, with the sales team carrying out in-depth research of the market, and then appointing a local distributor prior to commencing sales.<\/p>\n<p>Already in 2020, and despite the pressures of Covid-19, the company has announced a series of major new speci\ufb01cations; including projects in Brazil, Chile and the USA. While in UK, new innovations like a redesigned cable hanger that is stronger and cheaper; and a twist foot \ufb01tting mechanism for its popular Emperor and Vulcan cable cleats that makes installation quicker and easier; are already making their mark.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA lot of our success in recent years has come from the fact that Ellis Patents cable cleats are tried, tested and trusted,\u201d said Kelly. \u201cBut the market is getting ever more competitive, so in order to maintain our position at the head of it we have to stay one step ahead.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see my new role as head of sales as ensuring that all the bene\ufb01ts of our products \u2013 whether new and innovative, or long-established bestsellers \u2013 are communicated properly to all our target markets. The aim being that when it comes to new speci\ufb01cations, Ellis Patents name and its products remain at the forefront of decision makers minds, wherever in the world they are. It\u2019s certainly a challenge, but it\u2019s one I\u2019m relishing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For further information on Ellis Patents and its global sales operation visit www.ellispatents or call +44(0)1944 758395.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>World-leading cable cleat manufacturer Ellis Patents has handed Kelly Brown a global sales remit.
