Each of Procom's new regional sales offices will consist of at least one sales representative, one pre-sales application engineer and support personnel. Each regional team will be responsible for providing product demonstrations, local trade show representation and new product roll-outs to prospective corporate clients. ''Our network attached storage strategy requires a field sales presence while we maintain the integrity of our reseller partnerships,'' said Nick Shahrestany, Procom's Executive Vice President of Marketing. ''We chose New York because of the large number of corporate prospects where we can generate significant sales leads for our reseller and distribution partners.''
