Next up in our Big Dwayne Energy employee spotlight series, where we showcase our incredible team is...
Drew Gerolimos - Director of Sales, Central and East ⚡️
1. What is your Big Dwayne Energy that you bring to ZOA?
Not sure if it’s what I bring, it’s about how the Team brings Big Dwayne Energy to ZOA every day. The people on the Central and East Coast teams go to market every day, regardless of what type of account they go into, whether it’s a convenient store or a large format chain store, bringing this incredible vibe with them. That’s what represents Big Dwayne Energy, and they represent me. I couldn’t be prouder of the ZOA Team.
2. What is your favorite thing about working at ZOA?
I feel like I’m going to give the standard answer; it’s the people. It all starts with leadership. When anyone in the company can call the CEO, SVP of Sales, VP National Accounts, CMO, or Chief People Officer, and get an answer from them, that matters to the people in the company. At ZOA, it doesn’t matter what job title you might have; it matters that you’re heard. Always remember, people will respect that more than anything.
3. What is one song you could listen to every day for the rest of your life?
I am really into Jelly Roll right now. That man can’t make a bad song, so I guess anything from Jelly Roll or maybe Kid Rock. I love too many songs to pick just one.
4. What is your favorite ZOA flavor and why?
Why, why do I only get one when I have the whole portfolio at my fingertips? Okay, but I refuse to pick just one: Mango Splash and Green Apple! Mango Splash tastes more like a juice than an energy drink, it definitely stands out in flavor. For Green Apple, the flavor is in your face. It’s almost like you’re taking a bite out of a Green Apple.
5. What is your biggest Big Dwayne Energy moment?
One of my biggest Big Dwayne Energy moments was when I was tapped to lead the East region after leading the sales team in the Midwest. Not only was I up for the challenge, but I had proven my ability to take on more and serve in a larger role for ZOA. It was great to know the leadership team had faith in me and trusted me with both regions.
