The awards honor leaders who drive and inspire their teams to excellence and achievement.

"Sharon's strategic marketing and leadership has played a vital role in the continuing success of Wi-Ex. Through a mix of traditional and online marketing initiatives, Sharon led the team in both creating the cell phone signal booster category and solidifying Wi-Ex as the category leader," said Lloyd R. Meese, President and CEO of Wi-Ex. "Her strategic insight into how new technologies are shaping the marketing landscape and ability to harness that power for Wi-Ex, puts her in a small group of marketers who can blend traditional marketing practices with the newest online practices to create powerful and successful marketing campaigns."

As executive vice president of marketing, Cuppett oversees all of the marketing communications and product management functions of Wi-Ex. 2007 was a tremendous year for Wi-Ex. Prior to 2007, there was no market awareness of cell phone signal booster. Through Cuppett's leadership on the marketing and PR strategy and execution, channel development and product development, Wi-Ex not only created the cell phone signal booster category but solidified its leadership of the category.
