Greg Blumstein Named AndWeSupport's First California State Ambassador for Promotional Products Distributors
Experience can be measured in years. Trust is built one relationship at a time. AndWeSupport is thrilled to announce Greg Blumstein as the firm’s first-ever California State Ambassador, a role that reflects decades of trust and experience.
From Ernst & Young to the Family Business
Greg’s journey to the promotional product industry began not in marketing but in technology. After working in Ernst & Young and Informatica, he founded his own company, Data Advantage Group. He became a father and sixty-hour work weeks became unsustainable. His mother had started Ad Plus, LLC, a promotional products company, in 1991, and he joined the family business. When she retired, he became the owner and has been a part of the promotional products industry ever since.
Not Sell. Solve.
The technology background has become an asset to his work in the promotional product industry. Through Promo Social Post, he has helped hundreds of distributors and suppliers to maximize the power of social media and email marketing and keep their brand front of mind with their customers. The focus wasn’t on the latest trends but rather on the specific challenges each business faced and the ways to solve them.
Not sell. Solve.
These are the credentials that have earned him the respect of his peers and helped build the legacy of his family business. They have also earned him the role of AndWeSupport’s first-ever California State Ambassador.
The Reputation, Not the Title, Comes With Experience and Dedication
The title didn’t come with the experience. Greg has been supporting distributors and suppliers in need of back-office support with the same energy and enthusiasm that has seen him through forty years of his career. The qualities that define Greg are best summed up as
- solving real-world problems
- pairing industry-leading technology
- and understanding the needs of his clients.
They involve
- providing services that go beyond basic support
- building relationships with distributors and suppliers
- enabling businesses to keep their brands front of mind with their customers
- making their jobs easier.
Introducing AndWeSupport's First California State Ambassador
The title is new, but the man behind it has been providing unparalleled leadership and support to his clients for years. When asked about his philosophy, Greg comments,
“I would like to help California distributors realize the value of the right back-office support. AndWeSupport has helped me to free up more time to focus on sales and grow my business, and I want others to have the same opportunity.”
What Does Great Leadership Look Like to Greg Blumstein?
When asked about what great leadership looks like, he comments,
“Great leadership is being there for your people and helping them to achieve their goals.”
That is leadership, and that is Greg Blumstein.
The Goal: Help Distributors Grow Their Business in California
The question about his goals as the AndWeSupport California State Ambassador is met with the same enthusiasm,
“My goal is to help the California distributors grow their business by educating them about the value of the right back-office support in helping them to save time and focus on sales, their customers, and their business.”
The technology solutions are there to help the distributors, not to take over their business. Technology is the enabler, and the relationship is based on honesty and transparency.
Off the Clock, He Can Be Found at the Lake
When he isn’t helping distributors grow their business, he can be found fishing at the California coast, Lake Tahoe, or Alaska. There is no better way to experience the West than fly-fishing in some of the most spectacular places in the country. Ask him about his favorite.
