Tandem Sales & Marketing was founded in early 2002 by
MI and Pro Audio industry veteran, Jim Giordano
with years of musical instrument, professional audio and senior
corporate management experience.
Jim began his early career working for
a busy full line music store in Southern
California and within a few months, was promoted to general
manager. Under his management, the business realized significant
growth and double-digit year-to-year sales increases. So much
so, that the property next door was acquired, doubling the
existing square footage to 10,000 square feet. Prior to leaving
to pursue a new opportunity, the business had grown into a very
successful multi-million dollar operation.
Shortly after Jim left retail, he
started GSM an independent sales agency, representing IMC
(International Music Corporation) for such lines as AKAI Pro,
Studiomaster, Tokai Guitars, Hondo Guitars, Ross Systems, Fane Speakers and
others for the states of California, Nevada and Arizona. A few
years later, in a move to establish their own distribution in
the U.S. market, Studiomaster U.K. retained Jim as Vice
President of Sales where he played a significant role in
Studiomasters' successful U.S. operation start-up and subsequent
incorporation. Jim was eventually promoted to President - CEO of
the U.S. corporation and held that position until he left the
company in late 2001. During his tenure with Studiomaster, Jim
directly managed 16 + independent rep firms and personally
directed all of the sales, PR, advertising and marketing
activities for the company.
With real world 'hands on' experience
and a well rounded business acumen, Tandem Sales & Marketing
strives to afford dealers, clients and vendors alike,
a 'win-win' solutions based approach with uncompromising ethics
and integrity.
Tandem Sales & Marketing takes a great
deal of pride in the product lines that we represent. We choose
to represent only those product brands that we personally
believe, are 'cutting edge' technologically and afford the very
best value, quality, performance and reliability in the
marketplace. |
