ABRA Auto Body & Glass Names Angela Huffman Memphis Account Executive

MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- ABRA Auto Body & Glass, a Minneapolis-based damaged vehicle repair company, has named Angela Huffman as an Account Executive for the Memphis, TN market. Huffman will be in charge of marketing ABRA's collision repair, glass and paintless dent removal services to area insurance agents and representatives.

When asked why an additional Account Executive position was added at this time, Monty Montgomery, Vice President ABRA-Tennessee, responded: "ABRA is dedicated to working very closely with our insurance partners to guarantee their insureds receive high-quality and timely repairs. We have an incredible story to tell about our safety, training and professionalism, and believe that Angela is the one to help spread the story for us."

Huffman, a 10-year veteran in sales and marketing, was most recently a Marketing Director with Southern Transportation Corporation in Memphis. Asked why she joined ABRA, Huffman stated, "ABRA has a great respect for the integrity of the damaged vehicle repair industry. I have always admired the company and their management, and feel fortunate to be given the chance to add my skills and talent to ABRA's continued growth. By calling on the insurance community, my goal is to increase sales by 20 to 30 percent over the next two years."

Huffman is a graduate of Memphis State University with a major in Marketing. She serves as President of the Memphis Sales Forum, Treasurer of the Memphis Insurance Association, and Vice-Chairman of the American Cancer Society's Community Crusade.

"We are expecting significant growth in the Memphis market over the next several years," continued Montgomery, "and we feel Angela is up to the challenge of bringing us to the next level."
