Warp 9® Announces Promotion of Harinder Dhillon to President
August 1, 2005 Santa Barbara, CA Warp 9, Inc., the premier provider of highly customized and robust Internet commerce solutions for the catalog and retail industry, announces the promotion of Harinder Dhillon to President of Warp 9.
Harinder Dhillon first joined Warp 9 in 1999 as the Director of Engineering and was promoted to Vice President of Operations in 2001. Since then, Mr. Dhillon has been instrumental to Warp 9’s healthy and sustained growth over the past number of years.
Warp 9 first entered the catalog industry as a provider of fully hosted and managed e-commerce solutions. Throughout the years, Warp 9 has helped many customers grow their web channel sales to millions of dollars per month. Its customer base includes well known names such as The Territory Ahead, Magellans Travel, Carabella and Wind and Weather.
A robust scalable technology platform and outstanding customer service have helped Warp 9 grow profitably through word of mouth. Responding to customers needs, Warp 9 has, over the past year, transformed itself into a full service e-commerce solutions provider delivering an array of services beyond its technology platform -- from creative design to online marketing management. The efficiencies in Warp 9’s technology and management processes allow customers to benefit from a world-class e-commerce platform that delivers a rapid ROI.
Accepting this promotion, Mr. Dhillon comments, “I’m very excited about what we have accomplished this year alone. We’ve overhauled our technology infrastructure to maximize its economies of scale and ramped up sales and marketing activities as we enter into an accelerated growth cycle. Our industry has undergone a shake-out in recent years, leaving only the strongest players. Our customers are medium to large catalogers, who value the quality and completeness of our solutions over competitors – most of whom have over-promised and under-delivered. This market shake-out, combined with the fact that web channel sales now represent a significant part of overall revenue, is driving catalogers to realize that they need a solution like Warp 9’s. Affirming this, in the last few months alone, we have signed over a dozen new clients.”
Jon Lei, the Company’s Chairman and CEO comments “Throughout the years, Warp 9 has built a strong brand identity in the catalog industry. We are now seeing that brand identity turn into substantial business for us in a market that is recognizing the significantly increased ROI associated with an outsourced model for e-commerce solutions. Harinder and his team have done a fantastic job with the Warp 9 operation and we are confident he will continue to do so.
