VANCOUVER, BC–(Marketwired – March 13, 2017) – HIT Technologies Inc. (TSX VENTURE: HIT) (“HIT” or the “Company”), designer, manufacturer, and distributor of lifestyle brand HITCASE®; is pleased to announce the engagement of Crowd & Company, a San Diego-based full-service provider of hands-on, go-to-market services focused on consumer product companies and brands. Crowd & Company brings a team with a proven track record of growth and operational excellence in building one of the industry’s most successful and well-known brands of iPhone cases.
The engagement is currently limited to a three-month project, solely focused on sales and supporting go-to-market services that will expand retail and online sales of HITCASE SHIELD and the upcoming all new PRO. The services will be led by Dan Koziol, founder & CEO of Crowd & Company, who was one of the founding team and SVP of Sales & Marketing for LifeProof from 2010 to 2013 where he led the company to over $300 million in sales in 24 months.
“We are unbelievably excited to have the great minds at Crowd & Company join the HITCASE team,” said HIT Technologies CEO, Brooks Bergreen. “Dan is extremely selective in whom Crowd works with and only accepts a limited number of engagements at a time. This is exactly the type of relationship I have been looking for to help unlock our growth potential. I believe that over the next three months of this collaboration, we will prove out the opportunity for HITCASE and will be able to formalize a long-term operational relationship with Crowd to bring it to fruition. We couldn’t be happier to work with this incredibly talented and driven group of people.”
Dan Koziol, CEO of Crowd & Company said, “We are very much looking forward to our collaboration with HITCASE. The innovation of the HITCASE SHIELD and the newly designed PRO and the exciting brand and online content built by HITCASE thus far has them well-positioned as a diamond in the rough. This is precisely Crowd’s area of expertise and we see huge potential.”
