It's well balanced information that is useful on a daily basis. I'm very satisfied with the Executive Edition. I start each day with SES and a big cup of coffee!

It pertains to my business

I’m an avid reader of Shop-Eat-Surf because it’s really the only online newsletter that I have found that is not only industry related, but also because it’s not so “guy-centric.” I find that a lot of the information I read on the site pertains to my business (as a swimwear designer) and keeps me up to date on what other companies and other women in the industry in general are doing which is not only inspiring but also helps me gauge the future direction of my business as well.

I feel privileged to read the Executive Edition because I know I am getting insider industry information before it hits the mainstream media channels. And it’s always good to know what my friends are up to in the industry.

Longtime Quiksilver employee Michelle LeBlanc has moved to Volcom to become the juniors national sales manager for the specialty market.

Previously, Michelle was the national sales manager for Roxy swim and Roxy's liason to core retailers. Someone once described her to me as the Roxy version of Tom Holbrook.

Volcom's Executive Vice President of Sales Tom Ruiz told me a few more details about Volcom's hiring of Michelle.

"She is a great fit for our team and comes with solid experience," Tom said. "She has very good relationships with our core retailer base and has a strong background in the juniors apparel and swim business.

"We had been searching for over a year to find the right person for this position. Michelle was one of the few that made our radar. We are super stoked to have Michelle on board at Volcom."
