EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT

LISA CRAMER

Lisa Cramer & Elite Tape were recently recognized by one of our largest Distributor Partners as VENDOR OF THE YEAR

Our Employee Spotlight series aims to highlight the many talented individuals who work at Elite Tape.

Lisa Cramer is a very talented member of our Elite Tape sales team and has been with us for five years. Lisa started in tape sales when she was 19 years old and has worked for tape distributors as well as manufacturers. She has accumulated nearly 30 years of knowledge about tape applications, products and creating efficiencies.

Lisa’s favorite part of her job is her customers. Solving their problems with tape gives her great satisfaction. “Elite Tape is the only company I’ve worked for that has been consistent in their promises to both me and our customers. Our team is knowledgeable, consistent and reliable. Elite’s motto ‘We Make It Easy’ is 100% truth all the way around.”

In her free time Lisa enjoys the outdoors especially gardening, tubing, camping and hanging out with her family.

When asked what advice she might give her younger self, in true Lisa fashion she said, “Honestly, that girl was wise enough to get me where I am today, so I would tell her ‘Great job.’” She is always grateful.

Lisa’s generosity knows no bounds as her coworkers will tell you. Her favorite charity is The Kingdom Manna Food Bank. “I feel extremely lucky to have all that I have and the more I can give back to folks in need, the more I feel like I’m making some sort of impact in this crazy world.”

In celebration of Lisa Cramer and her many, many contributions to our company, Elite Tape will be contributing $1,000 to The Kingdom Manna Food Pantry in Racine, Wisconsin.
