Anita Williams announced as ForRent.com®-The MagazineTM Regional Manager
Norfolk, VA-(August 1, 2006) - For Rent®, along with its parent company, Trader Publishing, is excited to announce the promotion of Anita Williams to the Regional Manager position for ForRent.com-The Magazine. This Magazine is For Rent’s latest offering designed to meet the needs of clients and apartment seekers in highly competitive markets not covered by For Rent Magazine®.
“I am honored to have been chosen as the ForRent.com-The Magazine Regional Manager,” says Williams. “I have been in the apartment industry since 1992 and am so proud to be working for a company that is such a leader in this industry.”
Anita joined Trader Publishing Company in 2002 with Auto Trader as an Account Manager in Tampa, FL. Within months, she moved to For Rent Magazine where she worked as the Senior Account Manager and helped in training efforts. Her insight and dynamic approaches to the Multi-Housing industry prompted For Rent to promote her to National Sales Development Manager. In 2005, she was asked to launch the Raleigh edition of ForRent.com-The Magazine. Since its launch, revenue for the magazine has seen a 241% increase.
“Anita has been the driving force in launching ForRent.com-The Magazine,” says Terry Slattery, Vice President/General Manager of For Rent. “She was so successful with the launch that we immediately realized she could dramatically impact this new division. We know the development of this business line is in good hands with Anita leading the charge.”
As the Regional Manager, Anita’s main responsibilities are opening new markets and assisting with the operations of those markets. In addition to Raleigh, Anita has overseen the magazine launches in Charlotte, Birmingham, Nashville and Connecticut. She is also a member of the Apartment Associations in those markets.
