Liam Clark takes on more technical sales

Date: 09-Jun-2023

Lusty & Blundell Ltd, New Zealand’s leading distributor of top-quality marine products and systems, has expanded showroom manager Liam Clark’s role into the crucial area of technical sales.

Based at L&B’s head office in Albany, on Auckland’s North Shore, Liam’s key area of focus will be Raymarine’s market-leading marine electronics. This will include working with key customers to understand what they are trying to achieve and then suggesting the best possible packages to meet their needs.

Having joined L&B in 2018 in a 19-year-old junior sales support role, Liam’s ability to quickly absorb new information, along with his hands-on experience and fast-growing practical knowledge, saw him become an integral member of Lusty & Blundell’s internal sales team before being promoted to showroom manager in 2022.

“Liam’s on-water experience and the additional knowledge he has gained since joining L&B has given him an extremely sound understanding of our broad range of products,” says L&B sales director Cameron Maher. “Liam’s enthusiasm to service our clients and run his team is an inspiration to all of us.”

Liam grew up around the ocean and boats and is an avid boatie, spearfisher and multiple boat owner. “I love spending lots of time on the water and getting to use as many products in the L&B range as possible,” he says. “That practical experience then allows me to recommend the best possible solutions for our clients: products and systems that are not only reliable and high-performing but also perfectly suited to their needs.”

Liam says he takes pride in the strong relationships he has fostered with key L&B clients and enjoys working with and pushing his team of three showroom sales representatives to achieve ever-higher levels of customer service and expertise.

Liam says he is very excited about his latest role and how dynamic it is. “This new position will allow me to use the skills and experience I already have to gain an even deeper understanding of our huge range of great products. It will also let me quickly grasp the technical details and therefore the potential of the latest releases as they come to market.”
