Every year, Microsoft Press traditionally gives out three awards - Distributor of the Year, Publisher of the Year and the coveted Director`s Award of Excellence. Competition is fierce, with Microsoft Press partners competing for nominations across Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The criteria for the Director`s Award of Excellence is just that - superb accomplishment, execution and commitment.
At the recent Frankfurt Bookfair, Intersoft`s outstanding performance was acknowledged by being awarded the sought-after Director`s Award of Excellence.
Intersoft managed to grow revenue in SA by an amazing 50% in 2004 over 2003 - the highest amongst all European, Middle Eastern and African partners - in a year where the computer book-publishing climate was once again a challenging one.
"Congratulations and many thanks to all at Intersoft!" applauded Tunc Caglar, Rights Sales Manager for Microsoft Learning, who commended the Intersoft team for the hard work, commitment and excellence.
Ronald Woolf, Sales Director at Intersoft, is proud of the team. "We continuously strive for service excellence. We have always believed that our customers come first and we will do everything possible to fulfil their needs. I`d like to acknowledge the Intersoft team, for a job well done. Thank you also to our clients, without whose support this would not have been possible."
