ZipString, the brand behind a gravity-defying gadget of the same name seen on Shark Tank, has named Chandler Wilkins its Director of Sales.
Wilkins most recently held sales management positions in the software industry. Before that, he served as a Latter-day Saint missionary in Brazil and earned a degree in Supply Chain Management from Brigham Young University, where he studied with ZipString Co-Founder, Austin Hillam.
No one resembles the phrase — ‘if there’s a will, there’s a way’ — better than Chandler, making him a perfect fit for a company on the way up. Considering that we hand-made our first 4000 products in my family’s basement, it’s been a dream come true to have reached the point where ZipString is now manufactured in China and sold internationally, and Chandler’s expertise in sales and supply chain management will play an important role in that growth.
“In some ways, we can be considered the toy industry’s equivalent to a garage band becoming rock stars, since our roots began in a basement,” says Stephen Fazio, Co-Founder, ZipString.
