Adrienne Boyer retires as Executive Vice President of Sales from Mud Pie

Industry veteran Adrienne Boyer has retired after 16 years at Mud Pie and over 30 years in the gift industry. According to Fred Pannek, President of Mud Pie, Boyer was instrumental in driving the company’s growth. “Adrienne’s leadership and guidance resulted in extraordinary sales growth for Mud Pie across all channels of distribution,” said Pannek, “Her warm, welcoming smile, her calm judgment, and strong belief in our sales team will be greatly missed, and impossible to replace.”

During Boyer’s tenure, she guided Mud Pie’s sales force transformation from 14 regional rep agencies, to the national OneCoast team that now includes 41 dedicated territory managers, and 31 multi-line TM’s. “Adrienne demonstrated her visionary skills as one of the decision makers that saw the potential in the national representation model and how it could help Mud Pie grow its business,” said John Keiser, CEO of OneCoast, adding “Once launched, Adrienne provided the direction to the OneCoast team that drove remarkable results.”

Boyer started out as a retail buyer at Goldblatt’s Department Store in Chicago. The majority of her career has been in Sales Management, working for several of the industry’s top national sales agencies.

In her own words, Boyer said, “I am excited about what lies ahead and, for now, looking forward to a stress free non-working life style.”
