JMX Brands Recognizes Robert Ata with Rookie of the Year Award

(Sarasota, Fla. – March 12, 2018) - JMX Brands, the top online retailer of Amish Furniture at www.dutchcrafters.com, honored Digital Advertising Specialist Robert Ata as the first recipient of company’s Rookie of the Year award.

Ata, who joined JMX Brands’ content, communications and marketing team in August 2017, became Adwords certified between his first and second interview, and quickly learned and grew the company’s Google and Bing advertising platforms for an average return on investment of 242 percent. The award also recognized the University of South Florida alum’s ability to work well with other teams, and bring fresh insight and perspective to meetings and a couple of the organization’s strategic campaigns.

The Rookie of the Year award will be given annually to one new employee who has made an immediate impact on the company’s growth and success. Presented by JMX Brands’ Vice President Linse Miller at the company’s 15th anniversary party at the Aloft hotel in downtown Sarasota, Ata received a “Rookie of the Year” mug to carry around the office and an extra paid vacation day in recognition of his hard work.

JMX Brands is a niche internet retailer founded in 2003 in Sarasota, FL. The company operates several online home furnishing and décor sites, including flagship Amish furniture site www.dutchcrafters.com and eco-friendly furniture and home décor site www.ecofriendlydigs.com. A member of the Greater Sarasota Chamber of Commerce and Manatee Chamber of Commerce, JMX Brands was selected as Sarasota Chamber of Commerce Retailer of the Year 2017, a 2016 Florida Company to Watch by GrowFL, a Furniture Today Top eTailer, and has made the Internet Retailer Mid Market 500, Business Observer Gulf Coast 500, and the Inc. 5000 lists multiple years.
