ASP is proud to have the finest sales team in the law enforcement industry (that’s not just our opinion—it’s what our customers tell us all the time). Unlike many companies, our Sales Directors are full-time, salaried territory managers, not commissioned multi-line representatives. While there are many outstanding independent reps, and that model works well for many manufacturers, the dedicated Director model has proven to be better for us and for our customers. It enables our sales team to be completely aligned on our mission and incentives. It allows them to shift attention and resources among varying priorities—from Distributor sales, to agency relations, to training programs and more—rather than just be under pressure to write orders.

Originally hailing from Meraux, Louisiana, George’s passions include competitive spearfishing in the Gulf of Mexico, and Texas Hold’em Poker. George says “I was excited for the next chapter of my career to be with ASP. My department has carried ASP batons for nearly 30 years, so I know the quality and effectiveness—I love that I can convey that to our customers confidently, firsthand.”
John has been with ASP since 2020. He is originally from Asheville, NC and has over 20 years of experience in sales and operations—thirteen of which were in the public safety industry. John enjoys music, travel, science, and history. Of his work at ASP, he says, “I find working at ASP fulfilling, because in a very real way, what we do helps to ensure that our law enforcement officers go home safe. We take that very seriously, and I am proud of that.”

And this, in turn, helps the communities they serve.”
Marc has officially been with ASP since 2017, but really much longer—for years prior to joining our sales team, he was our Distributor in Belgium. After his army service, Marc dedicated his career to supporting military and law enforcement professionals, and he continues that commitment as our “international ambassador”—traveling up to 200 days a year in the process. Marc and his wife enjoy riding their motorcycles, and good food and drink. Marc says “I love working with so many passionate colleagues at ASP. It is reflected in our team’s attitude, motivation, and product expertise. And it enables us to get our customers passionate about the business as well.”

Carlos lives in California with his wife and their two dogs. Outside of work, he competes in muay thai and boxing, and enjoys snowboarding, hiking, and hunting. Carlos is deeply committed to officer safety and wellbeing, and says that “being able to provide tools and training to help my brothers and sisters in blue go home safe every day goes way beyond a job.
