Ryan Hawkins, Sales & Marketing
Ryan attributes his success in the Plastic Card Industry to the experience he gained working in the Standard Commercial Printing industry. Ryan started his career in printing at age 15 running prepress, and bindery equipment quickly learning the tools of the trade to better poise himself and eventually move on to Customer Service and Sales.
Finding that he had a knack for Sales Ryan looked to further his skills in advertising and marketing and took a position with MPA media in 1999 where he used his printing experience to streamline the communication between advertisers, editors, and web printers. This allowed the company to double the size of their existing publications, and also take on more publications without a significant increase in staff or work hours.
Ryan has spent the last 5 years in the Plastic Card Industry with CPI card group, operating as both Sales Manager and Product line specialist for Blank Plastic Cards. Ryan was instrumental in transitioning Customer Service during the companies move from Los Angeles to Las Vegas in 2004. After completing the relocation to Las Vegas Ryan took over Sales responsibilities for Blank Cards in 2005 and increased annual sales by more than 50%.
In 2008 Ryan joined Eagle Technologies USA to lead sales and marketing. He is excited about the growth potential of the blank card market and to finally provide the market with the attention and service that it deserves.
