RALEIGH, NC – The Retail Solutions Providers Association (RSPA) recently announced the hiring of John Grega as a Business Development Specialist. Grega, who has several years of association software sales and marketing experience, will work alongside RSPA Vice President of Member Services Ashley Naggy.

“I’m absolutely thrilled to be a part of the RSPA team!” said Grega. “In the few short weeks that I’ve been a part of the organization, I’ve been greeted with an incredible warmth, as well as a tremendous depth of knowledge in the field, so it’s easy to see why RSPA is held in such high regard. I look forward to upholding the RSPA’s reputation in the industry and to accelerating the growth of the RSPA.”

 “We’re extremely happy John has joined the RSPA team,” said Jim Roddy, RSPA President & CEO. “He’s a great fit for the culture of our team and our community – hard-working, helpful, and friendly. One of the drivers of the RSPA’s success is attracting growth-oriented retail technology solution providers to our already strong community. John will play a key role in that area and in the success of our members.” 

As an RSPA Business Development Specialist, Grega will play a key role in driving new membership sales and will act as a trusted business advisor to prospective members. Grega’s addition to the RSPA team is significant as he will focus on accelerating the growth of the association by recruiting high-quality retail IT VARs, ISVs, and vendors to join the RSPA community.
