AICC To Host Moneyball Strategy Webinar

POWER PRECISION PERFORMANCE

AICC, The Independent Packaging Association, an- nounced an upcoming webinar on Scoring Big in Sales: Using the Moneyball Strategy to Transform Your Sales Model set for 2:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, November 6. This presentation ties into Michael Lewis’ 2003 book, “Moneyball.” The book tells the story of the Oakland Ath-

letics general manager, who lev- eraged a non-traditional model for assembling a winning team against wealthier teams.

Drawing parallels, the webinar will demonstrate how to apply a for- mulaic approach to marketing and sales goals and explore the break- down of the mathematical steps required to achieve these objectives effectively. The presentation will dive into using marketing math to structure, deploy, and monitor your sales and market- ing activities, creating a more predictable pathway toward achieving sales goals. The speaker will be Todd Zielinski, Managing Director/ CEO, Athena SWC. Todd is one of the co-founders of Ath- ena and was instrumental in the development of Athena’s outsourced business model. He has more than 20 years of experience with hands- on sales, lead generation and management, tactical mar- keting, return on investment models, marketing, and man- agement. Todd is currently responsible for the strategic direction, profit and loss, marketing, sales, and general management of Athena. He has successfully implemented Athena’s outsourced marketing processes in various business-to-business com- plex sales environments, including corrugated, folding car- tons and ridged boxes. Since Athena’s inception in 2007, Todd has success- fully increased year-to-year revenue growth for Athena’s outsourced sales and marketing services division, as well as expanded this line of business across the US manufac- turing marketplace. The webinar is free to AICC Members in good standing. Visit aiccbox.org . For more information, contact Taryn Pyle at tpyle@aiccbox.org or (703) 836-2422. Todd Zielinski
