I just saw a press release this morning about fellow gun blogger Kevin Creighton. He blogs at Misfires and Light Strikes. He is now the new marketing manager for Osage County Guns in Belle, MO. He says he'll be hanging up his blog and taking over the blog at Osage County Guns.
The official announcement in The Shooting Wire is below:
Osage County Guns Hires New Marketing ManagerGood for Kevin. Now if he can convince Osage County Guns to carry CZ pistols.....
Belle, Mo - Osage County Guns is pleased to announce the hiring of Kevin Creighton as their new Marketing Manager. In addition to his long history of success in online marketing for companies such as IBM Direct and Hawaii.com, Kevin is also a well-known gunblogger and is an active competitor in both practical pistol and 3 gun.
Kevin joins Osage County Guns as Marketing Manager to expand their online presence and continue their tradition of first-class customer service. "Osage County Guns is known for how well they treat their customers, and I'm looking forward to continuing that tradition of service by developing their website into the premiere source of information on safe and responsible gun ownership."
John Dawson, Vice President said "Customer satisfaction is always our goal at Osage County Guns, and Kevin's wealth of experience and industry knowledge makes him a key addition to our team. We're excited to add someone like Kevin who is both a part of the vibrant firearms community on the Internet and also has had a long and successful career in online marketing. Our priority has always been to provide an online experience that meets and exceeds the needs of today's gun owner and we see his addition as an essential part of our future growth."
As a matter of fact, there's a bunch of reasons why getting CZ back in the fold is a priority for me, both personal and business. :D Still getting my legs underneath me here, but doing stuff for gunbloggers (hint: free guns), getting involved with the GBR (hint: more free guns) and re-re--re-reorganizing the New Media Meetup at SHOT (which I can pretty much guarantee will have some form of sponsorship. :D ) are all on my to-do list.
