Company Profile:
EMS was founded in 1999 by Buzz Bishop to position steel producing companies for rapid growth in target markets.
In 2000, his partner, friend and long time business associate, Tim Demma joined Buzz to help grow the business. Together, they represent a wealth of experience in both long and flat rolled products. They share an extensive background with over 50 years of combined experience in field sales and product management positions with Bethlehem Steel Corporation. The two friends held senior management positions with other steel companies including Armco Steel and Republic Steel before forming Effective Marketing Solutions.
The company has enjoyed double-digit growth by satisfying clients and customers, and adding new products and personnel as opportunities are developed. Today, the EMS team includes eight field sales representatives and three customer service representatives .
