Words: Al MorrisMark Donze has joined PROSOCO as sales manager for the company’s Central Great Lakes sales region. He replaces Mike Trotta, who was promoted to contractor training specialist.

PROSOCO, Lawrence, Kansas, is a national manufacturer of products for cleaning, protecting and maintaining concrete, brick and stone architecture.

The company’s Central Great Lakes sales region includes Michigan, Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Kentucky and the Southern tip of Indiana.

Since then, he has run both commercial and retail stores, and served as a sales rep covering Ohio’s Akron and Summit counties. He worked with architects, engineers, builders and painting contractors.

As sales manager, Donze supports PROSOCO distributors in selling the company’s products to clean, protect and maintain concrete, brick and stone architecture. He will also work with area contractors, architects, building-owners and the company’s many manufacturer’s representatives throughout his sales territory.

As the company’s contractor training specialist, Mike Trotta creates and travels with mobile “road show” training programs to give contractors nationwide free hands-on training in PROSOCO’s latest technologies.

“Air and Water-Resistive Barriers for Masonry Construction” is currently his most requested program.

Previously, Trotta served as a PROSOCO sales manager for five years. The Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio resident is a graduate of the University of Akron.
