Madison, Wis.-based audio retailer<br />
Full Compass Systems has promoted<br />
Roxanne Wenzel to vice president of sales<br />
and marketing and Cristin Livezey to vice<br />
president of finance.<br />
Wenzel joined the company in early<br />
2008. According to a statement from Full<br />
Compass, her knowledge of successful sales<br />
and marketing strategies from previous<br />
high-level positions has helped push the<br />
company to record sales growth.<br />
“I am very excited to accept this position<br />
and will do my best to keep Full Compass<br />
moving on its upward climb,” Wenzel said.<br />
“I am very fortunate to have such highly<br />
motivated, professional sales and support<br />
teams, which are critical components to<br />
our future success.”<br />
Livezey, who joined the company as a<br />
corporate controller in 2008, has also helped<br />
drive initiatives resulting in record sales<br />
for the company. She previously worked<br />
in accounting at Madison-based audio and<br />
video distributor Intelix.<br />
“Our entire accounting department<br />
and I will remain dedicated to deepening<br />
outside financial relationships, optimizing<br />
internal processes and controls, and<br />
managing cash flow to achieve profitable<br />
growth for Full Compass,” Livezey said.<br />

GC AIDS STRUGGLInG MUSICIAnS<br />
This holiday season, Guitar Center gave<br />
shoppers a chance to make a difference<br />
in the lives of fellow musicians.<br />
The combo chain accepted contributions to<br />
MusiCares Foundation at all of its North American<br />
stores. MusiCares provides struggling musicians<br />
support and guidance with everything from addiction<br />
recovery to personal or medical crisis. Shoppers contributing<br />
as little as a dollar were given an ornament<br />
to display in the store, either to decorate its holiday<br />
tree or a dedicated MusiCares wall on the premises.<br />
“We focus on giving back to musicians,<br />
creating opportunity for them where there wasn’t<br />
any before,” said Gene Joly, GC’s executive vice<br />
president of stores. “This holiday season, we<br />
want to help our customers make a meaningful<br />
impact in the lives of people who are struggling<br />
personally and have nowhere else to go.”<br />
