ST. LOUIS, MISSOURI- In recognition of a record breaking Q1 sales performance, St Louis Music held a celebratory lunch on April 22nd as a thank you to its employees. Mark Ragin, President & CEO of St. Louis Music, was eager to see his staff at SLM rewarded for their excellent work.
“Our success this Q1 could not have been accomplished without the help of each and every one of our employees at SLM,” Said Ragin. “I speak for the entire management staff when I say we have the finest and hardest working team in the music industry, and it’s great to be able to reward them all for a job well done.”
SLM staff were treated to a barbecue buffet by Chris Cakes Barbecuing, famous in the Midwest for their combining of fine barbecue and artisan pancakes.
