Sevierville announces winner of national search for an amazing and inspiring woman for Girlfriend’s Getaway

Sevierville, Tenn. –  After receiving more than 600 nominations from all parts of the country for Sevierville’s “Great Girlfriend’s Getaway” search, the Sevierville Chamber of Commerce has announced that Julie Pease of Arlington, Texas was selected as the “amazing and inspiring” woman to represent Sevierville in their national Girlfriend’s Getaway ad campaign.  Pease had a surprise visit at her home from representatives of Sevierville and her friend – Barbie Bricker – who nominated her.

Bricker wrote a glowing nomination of Pease, who is the central point of support among their group of friends. During the past decade, Pease has helped her best friend Laurie Jones as she battles cancer, including taking time off work to help her recover from surgeries and transport her to and from chemotherapy. During this time Pease also lost both of her own parents and her husband.  According to Bricker, “Through all of her losses, Julie finds the good. She puts others first and cares for everyone else.”

“This group of girls is so special in my life,” says Pease. “They are my encouragers, my safe place and the people that I can be myself around. I know I can trust them. In the good times and bad times, there will always be laughter! I love these girls.”

Along with three other friends from church – Sandy McNutt, Laurie Jones, and Stephanie McVay – the women will now get an all expenses paid, “over-the-top” Girlfriends Getaway to Sevierville, Tenn. in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.  While in Sevierville later this month, the group will enjoy high-end shopping at the Tanger Five Oaks with the help of a fashion consultant, luxurious cabin accommodations at Oak Haven Resort, gourmet in-cabin meals, ziplining, winemaking at Hillside Winery, relaxing treatments at Oak Haven Spa, and much more.

“There were so many nominations telling us about incredible women overcoming difficult situations and inspiring others that choosing just one was very difficult,” says Sevierville Chamber of Commerce marketing director Amanda Marr. “We chose Julie because she epitomizes the selflessness of true friendship and I really think other women will relate to her because of that.”

In addition to the free trip Pease and her friends will receive, they will also have the starring role in Sevierville’s new national Girlfriend’s Getaway advertising campaign.

To learn more about organizing a Sevierville Girlfriends Getaway, go to www.OfficialGirlfriendsGetaway.com.  Sevierville is located in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, and is surrounded by hundreds of restaurants, high end outlet shopping, shows and attractions, and is Dolly Parton’s hometown.  Sevierville is The Official Destination for Girlfriend’s Getaways™.

Cellular Sales Verizon Wireless opens five new stores in three states

Posted by Rick Laney – January 8, 2010

Knoxville, Tenn. –  Cellular Sales, the nation’s largest retailer of Verizon Wireless, is expanding again in Texas, North Carolina and Virginia.  Five new Cellular Sales stores have opened during the past month.

Cellular Sales Verizon Wireless is a 15-year old privately held company headquartered in Knoxville, Tenn.  The company currently operates throughout the United States.  For the past two years, Inc. Magazine has named Cellular Sales one of the nation’s fastest growing privately held companies. This year, the company was in the Top 100 for retailers.

“Cellular Sales’ ranking on this year’s Inc. 5,000 list is a testimony to customer service,” said Dane Scism, founder and CEO of Cellular Sales.  “Our business model is based on treating every customer as if they were our only customer.  People notice it when you take care of them.

“How many people are there that know exactly who to call – by name – when they have a question about their cell phone or their service plan?  Our customers have a name and contact number for their own personal wireless consultant, a real person they can talk to right there in their own community.  We’re proud of the way we take care of customers, and we know it is the reason we are growing.”

For the past 15 years, Cellular Sales has consistently outperformed the rest of its industry, and is now the nation’s largest retailer of Verizon Wireless.  By year end, Knoxville, Tenn.-based Cellular Sales will open 50 new stores, bringing the company’s total number of locations to over 300.

“When the economy is booming, growth is expected,” Scism said.  “But companies that are growing in spite of the economy – like Cellular Sales – have to be doing something different.”
