Craig Gunther
Senior Director, Regional Sales
We’ve got the details on the new LG G3 OLED evo launch; our newest and best OLED that is perfectly matched for what you need in the channel to delight your clients. And we have another terrific example of the great work in this channel with a creative implementation from Digital Home Systems—I think you’ll like this one.
There is lots more in future editions, including another Starpower LG showcase and an OLED placement on The Property Brothers’ hit show Brother vs. Brother. I hope you enjoy this information and thank you again for your support.
Best,
