Press Release Summary: Paragent, LLC has attracted management from Monster.com to
head up sales and marketing.
Press Release Body:
Muncie, IN — August Zehner, former Regional Sales Manager, will become Paragent’s
new Executive Vice President of Sales. Mr. Zehner has been involved in technology
sales for more than 20 years in both private and public companies. Prior to
Paragent, he was a regional sales manager for Monster Worldwide, Inc. (NASDAQ:
MNST).
Mr. Zehner\'s main focus is to further strengthen Paragent\'s place in the IT
marketplace. Zehner says the turnkey nature of Paragent’s offering is likely to
appeal to both the Enterprise and SMB marketplace that are not inclined to take on
the integration work of traditional server-based solutions. \"While most competitors
offer complex and hard to implement solutions that fit only enterprise budgets, we
offer a cost-effective, simple to install solution that provides real business
return on investment,” stated Zehner.
Late last year, the company released its second product, Paragent.com, which is a
web-based application that helps companies better manage computers. Tim Ritchey,
CTO and architect of the software, said that companies need a way to simplify the
process of monitoring and managing computers so they can do more with fewer people.
“Computing infrastructures have gotten larger and more complex in recent years while
IT budgets have remained flat or grown only slightly. This product bridges that
gap.” Pricing of the product is based on a subscription model.
“Paragent is very fortunate to have someone direct its sales and marketing with such
an extensive and successful background as Zehner,” noted Jeff Cheesman, CFO.
Paragent, LLC is a privately held, Muncie-based company.
Other background
Prior to Monster, Mr. Zehner was Director of Sales for Tumbleweed Communications
(NASDAQ: TMWD), a provider of secure Internet communication solutions, which had
acquired start-up company Corvigo, where he was Regional Sales Manager. Mr. Zehner
graduated from Ball State University receiving a BS in Marketing. He holds an MBA
from Anderson University, where he has been teaching eBusiness and eMarketing
classes as an adjunct professor since 2004.
