Reed Bearden: Sr. Manager, Bid Strategy
Reed has been around the world and back again. He’s a veteran alright; a 23 year vet in the lottery industry and a former sailor in the US Navy during the Viet Nam era. He has seen it all throughout the various stages of his life and we find his experience and expertise to be invaluable. As our Sr. Manager of Bid Strategy, there isn’t a single word, in any one sentence, on any of the hundreds of pages that make up our proposals that Reed isn’t familiar with. What was once a matter of formulating a simple, generic response has evolved into a complex, highly customized work of art that illustrates the capabilities a vendor has for its’ customers. Reed has watched the entire bid process evolve throughout the course of his career, providing a strong understanding of our customers’ current needs, desires, and expectations. Reed is proud of many of his accomplishments; perhaps mostly for working with lotteries to help raise money for good causes and for serving his country. We couldn’t be happier to have him aboard.
