PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, Va. — The American Chamber of Commerce Executives (ACCE) has again recognized Kris Johnson, Membership Development Director at the Prince William Chamber of Commerce, as a national leader in new member recruitment. Johnson signed more than 290 new members to the chamber over the last 12 months, ranking her among the top sales professionals in her industry.
Johnson was presented with the Membership Development Division’s National Sales Leader Award during ACCE’s Annual Awards ceremony at the association’s annual convention, July 23-26, in Oklahoma City. The award is based on the total number of individual sales and total dollar amount as submitted to ACCE by the sales professionals on a quarterly basis. Awards are presented in each of four dues income categories.
To qualify, chamber membership sales professionals must be members of ACCE’s Membership Development Division’s Circle of Champions program. In addition, the eligible sales to new members must have been made between June 1, 2012 and May 31, 2013.
Rob Clapper, President & CEO of the Prince William Chamber of Commerce said that this is the second year in a row that Johnson has received this award. “Speaking on behalf of the Chamber’s Board of Directors and staff, I would like to say that we are extremely proud of Kris and her accomplishments. To move into a new income category and still produce top sales for the nation — that’s impressive,” he said. “We are lucky to have someone who not only believes in the work we do as a chamber, but also cares a great deal about the success of our members.”
