ANAHEIM, CA—American BMX Company (ABC) is pleased to announce the addition of Carol McNaught to the sales team as assistant to the sales director.
"I am happy to have Carol onboard. She comes to us with a wealth of knowledge and understanding of the bicycle business. She is truly going to help take us to the next level," said Art Ornelas, ABC's sales director.
McNaught will work with Ornelas, handling customer service calls and warranties and will use her extensive list of industry contacts to add to ABC's list of sales reps and retailers.
McNaught has worked in bike industry since 1994, spending13 years JAX Bicycle Center, as well as a stint at Serfas where she was a product manager. Prior to taking time during the COVID-91 pandemic to stay home with her family, she was office manager for the sales rep agency Tsunami Sales Group.
"I've known Art since he worked at GT, and I worked with him at JAX when he was a sales rep for Nirve. Art and I are friends and we connected on Face Book after I posted that I was looking for a job. Working with him was very appealing. And the fact that Toby Henderson is part of the company was a big draw," McNaught said, adding that she's excited to be working for a BMX company for the first time in her 28-year industry career.
"Since the pandemic ended, I've been looking for a job. I honestly didn't think I'd get back in the bike industry, but Art called and asked me to come over, and here I am. I've never worked in BMX really, so I'm looking forward to learning all about a new segment of the industry," McNaught said.
McNaught started working at ABC Feb. 28.
