Car Charging Group, Inc. Announces Partnership With Salesconx
Relationship Provides Distribution Channel for Network of Electric Car Charging Stations
MIAMI BEACH, Fla., April 27, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Car Charging Group, Inc. (OTCBB:CCGI), a company dedicated to a clean and sustainable environment through the development of an Electric Vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure that will be compatible with all electric vehicles, today announced it has contracted with Salesconx, a nationwide network of sales and business professionals, to recruit and deploy a national sales channel of experienced and highly qualified representatives who will focus on Car Charging Group's business of owning, providing and servicing electric car charging stations.
Salesconx provides Car Charging with the ability to economically and expeditiously deploy a qualified sales force, providing a distribution channel for reaching decision makers at designated parking areas of public and private property, such as multi-family residential and commercial buildings, parking garages, municipalities, sporting venues and other convenient charging locations.
"With applications currently being taken for the Nissan Leaf, Chevy Volt, the Fisker Karma, and the Tesla Roadster for delivery in 2010, it is only a matter of time before drivers make the transition from gasoline-powered vehicles to electric vehicles," said Andy Kinard, President of Car Charging Group. "The arrival of electric vehicles requires the construction of a network of geographically dispersed charging stations that will provide ready access to electricity and alleviate consumers' 'range anxiety' fears. Our partnership with Salesconx better prepares us to develop the necessary EV charging infrastructure to aid the process."
