For Immediate Release
Loppnow and Associates Inc. joins forces with THE FARM
March 26th, 2010, Seattle WA: After exclusively serving the Pacific Northwest for 28 years, the venerable manufacturer's representative firm Loppnow and Associates Inc. is merging with The Farm, a Northern California based company. Together, the new company, now known only as The Farm, will become the largest Professional Audio-Video rep firm in the region. With a total of 10 employees and a product suite featuring the top brands in video and audio presentation, this new larger company is set to do business in the new economy. Jim Loppnow, Bob Connelly and Sue Loppnow will now be joined by acting Principal John Hood and the rest of the team from The Farm.
This merger now affords both regions resources to more effectively serve the needs of customers, as well as their manufacturers. VOIP phone systems, upgraded CRM software, along with access to a combined sample fleet now double in size, puts THE FARM (formerly Loppnow and Associates Inc.) firmly ahead of the pack in infrastructure and investment to go along with their already stellar staff.
With the local addition of Brendon Brown (former tour manager and FOH engineer for numerous national recording artists), new lines like Digital Projection Inc. and DVI Gear now push their already powerful Line List to be the best in class.
Effective immediately, the phones will be answered as “The Farm”, but Sue, Jim, Bob & Brendon will still be working out of their Seattle area offices, and will be directly available. The corporate office will be based at the Sacramento location. Each team member now has their own Direct Inbound Dial number, and will be reachable by that single number at all times. At any time, callers can ring the entire team at the touch of a button. In the meantime, the existing phone numbers for Loppnow and Associates remain active and route to The Farm offices.
