KEYSTONE SALES & ASSOCIATES NAMES BOB MOORE NEW TERRITORY SALES MANAGER, NORTH AND SOUTH CAROLINA

Military Veteran Brings Years of PHVAC Industry Know-How to the Manufacturer’s Representative Side as Mid-Atlantic Territories Continue to Grow


Bob Moore

 

(Pottstown, PA — March 27, 2018) Keystone Sales & Associates (KSA) announces the hiring of retired National Guard Staff Sergeant, Bob Moore, to the position of Territory Sales Manager. In his new role, Moore will use his military and plumbing, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (PHVAC) experiences to expand KSA’s reach in North and South Carolina.

“Keystone Sales & Associates is a proud American company,” said Bob Della Sala, KSA President and owner. “Our military veterans offer employers a disciplined work ethic and specialized skills that are an asset to organizations like ours. With people like Bob on our team, we are going to see continued growth like never before”

In addition to his military service, Moore holds a degree in business management from Ohio University, and a certificate in project management from Villanova University. Additionally, with a vast amount of experience in the HVAC wholesale space, Moore is confident that he can bring an unmatched level of customer service to KSA’s new mid-Atlantic territories.

“Being in the industry for nearly 15 years, I’ve been disappointed with many manufacturer representatives that I’ve encountered,” said Moore. “They seemed to forget that every employee, in every business using their products, is a potential decision-maker weighing in on who their company buys from next. In my role with KSA, I plan on focusing on every member of an organization as if they are the final say in placing an order.”

In addition to the acquisition of Moore, KSA recently secured the exclusive rights to represent Bosch PHVAC products in North and South Carolina.

Offering sustainable HVAC solutions, Bosch heating and cooling products include water heaters, wall-hung boilers, geothermal heat pump systems, and 18 SEER Heat Pumps as well as controls and accessories. KSA will carry and provide customer training on each of these products while promoting Bosch’s two flagship offerings – T9000 Tankless Water Heaters and Inverted Ducted Split (IDS) Heat Pump Units.
