Until May, he was a Sales Manager for Broadcast Electronics overseeing sales operations across the Western U.S. and Canada. How, he’s in the role of Regional Sales Manager for the Northwestern U.S. and Western Canada for GatesAir.
Joining the Thomson Broadcast-owned GatesAir is Ben Marth. He’ll be responsible for maintaining and expanding GatesAir’s radio and television sales across the region, while also representing the company at major industry events, including Society of Broadcast Engineers (SBE) meetings and trade shows. The news comes ahead of InfoComm, presently underway in Orlando.
At BE, Marth managed products including transmission systems, automation platforms, and RDS software. Before joining BE in April 2021, he was a regional sales rep for Digital Scoreboards, focusing on marketing efforts in the Midwest.
“My number one goal is to continue the strong global tradition of GatesAir as the premier television and radio transmission provider and support them in their distinguished universal presence,” said Marth, who was a Sports Director at WGEM-TV in Quincy, Ill., from August 2002 through June 2018. “GatesAir takes care of its clients in a unique and admirable way, and it’s my mission to carry on that customer-driven culture.”
Mark Goins, Vice President of Global Sales at GatesAir, commented, “Ben’s deep broadcast expertise and track record of strategic sales leadership make him a strong fit for this role. His understanding of the regional market, coupled with his dedication to long-term client relationships, aligns perfectly with our mission to deliver competitive services and solutions for our TV and radio broadcast customers across North America.”
