SalesForce4Hire® Announces Strategic Partnership with Bridgehead Solutions LLC
Cary, NC, November 1, 2007, Business Wire -- SalesForce4Hire®, a provider of custom sales solutions to the medical device and life science industries, today announced its collaboration agreement with Bridgehead Solutions LLC.
The strategic partnership was formed to provide a conduit for international healthcare companies seeking entry for their technologies in the U.S. marketplace. Through their joint efforts, SalesForce4Hire and Bridgehead Solutions will provide custom sales teams to accelerate the growth of international healthcare companies’ U.S. sales and increase market penetration.
According to Robert Schlegel, Bridgehead Solutions’ president and CEO, “The U.S. healthcare marketplace is the largest in the world, representing more than 50 percent of global expenditures. In 2006, the U.S. market expenditures for medical devices exceeded $90 billion. But despite that extraordinary volume, medical device companies based outside the U.S. face significant barriers to entry when considering expansion into the U.S. marketplace.
“By taking advantage of SalesForce4Hire’s market expertise and business acumen in developing custom sales channels, however,” Schlegel added, “international companies can rapidly and successfully navigate the challenges encountered when entering a foreign market. SalesForce4Hire’s capabilities balance the solutions that Bridgehead provides its foreign partners.”
Kevin Schimelfenig, SalesForce4Hire’s managing partner, stated, “We are excited about this strategic partnership and ability to tap into Bridgehead’s global expertise. Bridgehead Solutions cultivates business opportunities for international healthcare companies in the U.S. marketplace that complement our current sales channels.”
