March 15, 2004 — For Immediate Release 3/4/2004
Five Ten (http://www.fiveten.com,)
world leader in premium rock climbing shoes and high-friction
outdoor footwear, is pleased to announce the addition of Brian
Block to their independent sales force. Block will be in charge
of Five Ten's Midwestern territory, including Minnesota,
Indiana, Illinois, North Dakota, South Dakota, Iowa, Nebraska,
Wisconsin and Michigan.
Block, who attended Iowa State
University to obtain a B.A. in Philosophy, brings extensive
experience to the job. He spent more than nine years at
Iowa-based Ames Outdoor – becoming intimately acquainted with
the unique demands of outdoor retail. He's also climbed
extensively domestically and internationally, with ascents of Aconcaugua, Denali, Mt. Logan and the Mexican Volcanoes.
In
2002, he won the coveted Lyman Spitzer Award from the American
Alpine Club for a new route attempt on the East Face of Denali.
Five Ten president, Charles Cole says that Block was given the
job because of his sales experience, climbing expertise, and
mainly, because "he's a stand-up guy who we feel represents what
is right about the outdoor industry.
He's friendly, smart and
enthusiastic—everything you'd want in both a climbing and
business partner." Block also stresses that the importance of
not only "talking the talk," but "walking the walk." Says Block,
"I think that it is imperative that every transaction be of the
utmost integrity and honesty. Anyone can make the one time
sale—it's building the trust between you and your buyers that
will create the residual sales that make a business strong."
