Brandon Tortorigi

Systems Designer & Sales Rep

9 people have recommended Brandon

"After experiencing terrible service from other companies, Brandon was able

to cater to our unique needs and provided great service! He's very

personable, completed the project quickly, and the quality of work was

outstanding!"

- Michelle Torbor, was Brandon's client

"Brandon has an extraordinary gift for winning trust and proving that it

was well founded. As a sales designer, he was detail oriented and extremely

thorough with his follow through. I highly recommend him to any company in

a sales capacity or to any client as a system sales/designer."

- Matt Scalici, President and Principal Owner, FRONT ROW MEDIA SYSTEMS,

LLC, managed Brandon at Front Row Media Systems

"Brandon takes the time to learn what you want from your entertainment

system and then designs your perfect system. He does not try to sell you

anything that you do not need."

- Bracton Thoma, was Brandon's client

"Brandon is a great sales associate that listens to the customer's requests

and offers electronic entertainment solutions. He is well qualified for

retail and other sales environments. Brandon is a dedicated associate with

exceptional people skills."

- Germek Luke, Project Manager, Front Row Media Systems, worked directly

with Brandon at Front Row Media Systems

"I am an Independent Manufacture's Rep and have worked with Brandon over

the past few years. Brandon takes ownership of the electronic lines he is

selling. What I mean by that is, very seldom do I get a call from him about

a feature of my product or the technical boundaries of a product that I

sell. He takes it upon himself to learn everything about the product and

makes sure it fits and works within the scope of the design and proposal he

hands his client. Brandon is an asset to his company and his client."

- Scott Johnson, Partner / CTO, WSR Sales Southeast, was a consultant or

contractor to Brandon at Audio Video Excellence, Inc.

"Brandon is an excellent salesman and project manager. His detailed

communication with both the client and installer led to well executed

installation and high customer satisfaction. I highly recommend Brandon and

hope to work with him again."

- Gary O'Donovan, Owner, Front Row Media Systems, managed Brandon

indirectly at Front Row Media Systems

.

"Brandon was a able to Prepare a well detailed proposal for my clients on

two separate occasions. Brandon met their wants and justified the Budget in

terms of materials, installation and long term and short term paybacks. The

systems were amazingly simple in nature of use for the complexity of

functions. Brandon was more than flexible with the various changes of one

client and the other client is still raving about the work. The Details and

the justification of a TRUE budget that will work is the one thing I loved

but most importantly the service of the package not just have a client buy

it have it installed and leave after a quick meeting to brush over...but be

there after the install and more than willing to take the time to walk the

clients family through the system. The warranty on what is provided it

trumps to anything else out there on the market. The other is its installed

by technicians not someone out for a quick buck and go."

- Christopher Humphries, was Brandon's client

"Brandon is a well motivated and professional sales person. He supported

our efforts in the organization, and added significant value to his

employers each and every day. I would welcome the opportunity to work with

him again, as he is a joy to be around and always presents a positive

nature. Respectfully, James Kershaw"

- Jim Kershaw, Principal, Creative Marketing, was a consultant or

contractor to Brandon at Front Row Media Systems

I had the pleasure of working with him on total overall of my media room in

my house and he along with his team did a great job. He exceeded my

expectations and ensured total satisfaction."

- Michael Baker, was Brandon's client
