RALEIGH (July 15, 2005) - WingSwept, a leading IT consulting company specializing in Web and database development, has named Richard Benbow as the company's sales director. He will be responsible for developing an inside sales program and overall sales initiatives for the company.

"We are very excited about the promise of having Richard on staff as a full-time sales professional," said WingSwept President Jay Strickland. "With Richard, we will now be able to more easily expand into markets outside our traditional circles and spread the word about our expanding list of services to potential and existing clients more rapidly."

Born in Ft. Wayne, Ind., and raised in Raleigh, Benbow has more than 20 years of experience in sales and education. Since 1987, he has served in regional sales management, sales planning and marketing management positions at JVC of America in Lawrenceville, Ga. His most recent appointment with the company was as a regional sales manager of military sales for the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps.

Benbow holds a bachelor's degree in education from Appalachian State University.

The WingSwept companies provide full-service information technology consulting focused on interactive media and e-business systems. Headquartered in Garner, N.C., WingSwept Communications was established in 2000, followed by the incorporation of WingSwept Technologies in 2002 by its president, Jay Strickland, who has been in the Web technology consulting field for over a decade.
