Paul Prutch (R) and Kurt O’donnell (L) of RKR – 2018 President’s Award

RKR Manufacturer Representatives – Colorado

Josam Company recognizes RKR Manufacturer Representatives with the 2018 President’s Award. RKR is defined by their commitment to work as a team and more importantly to realize that success isn’t a single account, but a series of determined steps towards success. The team at RKR view success not as an accident, but a result of determined actions, continued effort, and consistent follow through. When RKR joined the Josam family in 2010, they looked at commercial drain line as a backbone to a strong commercial rep agency. They were very deliberate about how a drain line can be leveraged to the success of all their lines. Their message to the market is evident in everything they do, “we want to earn your business” and “we are looking for long term partners”. Their passion for success combined with a truly dedicated leadership team and committed sales force is their secret sauce. Congratulations to everyone at RKR!

FISKIO, INC. of Raynham, MA

Steve Fiskio and his company are one of the longest standing Josam representatives since the Holloway family acquisition of Josam in 1987. Don’t let Steve’s lean and mean operation fool you! Steve and his key employee John Boudreau are customer service driven and provide top service to their customers. While Fiskio Inc.’s customer base is spread nicely, they do focus on customers that are loyal and are interested in long term relationships based on trust and dependability and of course competitiveness. In addition to their hard working ethic, both Steve and John know how to have a lot of fun while working. Traveling with these guys leaves you with stomach pains from laughing so hard during your car ride from call to call. A well-deserved honor for Steve and John!

RKR MANUFACTURER REPRESENTATIVES of Denver, CO

RKR, a well-respected rep firm in the Denver market, joined the Josam team in 2010.  There is no doubt that they have been faced with fierce competition in the Denver market and we imagine there were often times they wondered if Josam was a right fit for them.  For some time they have had their sights on one of the major mechanical contractors in the market.  While they knew that a strong relationship on the part of one of their competitors prevented them from landing this account, this never stopped them from calling on them and letting them know Josam was always an option for them should the need arise. When turmoil arose in the market and the competitive rep situation was dismantled, RKR has positioned themselves favorably over the years with this account and successfully landed it.  With the success in landing this account, the management at RKR had the foresight to know that with this business would come a very time consuming and high maintenance account.  Knowing that to sustain the demands of such an account, the management team dedicated one of their top inside sales people to handling the account 100% of the time on behalf of Josam.  Aside from landing this single account, RKR has done a terrific job in cultivating multiple mid-sized accounts to come to the Josam side.  Although there were days and even years, when we are sure that they often wondered if this was a dream or reality, the team at RKR has always had a clear vision for the Josam line. We are extremely grateful that they never stopped pursuing this vision, remained committed to our lines, have established Josam as a major player in the Denver market and for it, they are now reaping the rewards.

MAYCO SALES of Dallas, TX

Having also come to the Green Team in 2012 from a prior color, the Mayco Sales team is one of the most respected drain reps in the country.  Led by Michael May, Mayco Sales is faced with one of the most competitive marketplaces in the country but this does not impede his continued growth.  Ask any customer in the market for the drain rep that first comes to mind and most likely the answer will be Mayco’s Sales.  Too many times we have heard customers say that drains are a pain, but since they are needed so early in the phase of the job, it is critical that there are no mistakes from the time of quote, to submittals and then to delivery!  Mayco does exactly this and it is why they have earned the reputation that they have.
