Photononstop boosts team to speed growth

Paris (FRANCE), SEPTEMBER 2008 - Seeking to strengthen its leadership position among independent French photo agencies, Photononstop continues to beef up its sales teams. In the past six months, three new sales staff have been recruited to strengthen the Press and Advertising departments. In September, Véronique Therme, former head of Customer Relations at Corbis France, took up her new duties as Photononstop's Sales Manager, France. Véronique was persuaded to join the Photononstop team because, she says, "the 'high-end' positioning - Made in Paris – and the technological flair and creativity of the agency are hugely popular among customers. It is an agency that has considerable potential in a slow market".
