Joe Stanley
I started with Valpak in August of 2016. I served as Sales Manager for almost 7 years while transitioning to a full-time marketing consultant over the last year. I finished the 2023 sales year as a Premier President’s award revenue achievement club winner with an average of $80K in monthly revenue for the year. I surpassed the $100K monthly mark for 3 consecutive months and made the $1MM club for annual revenue in 2023. Prior to Valpak, I spent 20 years in the Yellow Page industry from a telephone sales rep to franchise director. My life has been helping small businesses market themselves and generating leads to bring ROI and success
Peggy Perry
I’m a sales professional with over 20 years of successful sales experience with the Northern Virginia Valpak team. My work style is to share the best of Valpak’s extensive resources to communicate the value of Valpak to prospective clients. I’m skilled in developing the right plan to meet the unique needs of each client. This level of professionalism has earned me numerous awards including multiple years in Valpak’s national Chairmans Circle, Millionaire’s Club, Highest Sales Review, plus NVA Salesperson of the Year and more. I try to bring a true spirit of excellence to my work. I credit my success to my genuine interest in helping clients grow their business, as Valpak says – Neighborhood to Neighborhood, and to Valpak’s exceptionally supportive and highly skilled team. Prior work experience as a market analyst, advanced studies in marketing, advertising, business law and business development help a bit, too. When off work, I enjoy family time, reading, gardening, long neighborhood walks and just plain relaxing.
