The Event-News Enterprise announced this week that Liz Vucurevic has been named an account manager to serve the paper’s advertisers within the Los Alamitos trade area.
“We are very excited about the qualities Liz brings to our team,” said Group Publisher Steven Remery. “Liz has great energy and will be a great asset for us going forward,” he said, adding that the Event-News Enterprise is one of the Orange County Neighbor Newspapers flagship newspapers.
“I am looking forward to meeting local business owners and community leaders in our circulation area,” said Vucurevic. She said her sales and marketing experience will enable her to create effective advertising solutions for her accounts.
Following a ten-year stint in the software industry, Vucurevic completed her degree in Human Development at California State Long Beach. While raising her two daughters, Julia and Isabella, she sold promotional products to small businesses and later started her own business.
Vucurevic said she quickly realized the critical role that print advertising plays in connecting with the community, having used print ads to grow her business. She understands the product well, having often run ads in newspapers within the Event News parent company. “I know personally how effective print ads can be,” she said.
After selling her business to spend more time with her family, Vucurevic provided sales consulting for a German skincare company, later becoming the company’s SoCal training coordinator.
Now that her girls are grown, Vucurevic said she wanted to get back into the full-time workforce and is happy to have found a “great fit” with the Event News.
“I am extremely excited to help other small businesses grow by providing them with experience and creativity I used to grow mine,” she said. Liz will be handling accounts in the paper’s Los Alamitos territory with a goal of creating successful relationships with customers. She can be reached (562) 251-6626 or Liz@event-newsenterprise.com.
