March 2021 Member Spotlight - Diane Rizzo

Diane Rizzo, born and raised in New Castle County, is a sales professional with over 25 years of experience. Her first sales position was in 1997 selling coffee services to offices in the Delaware, Maryland, and New Jersey region. She realized her calling was in sales and she quickly progressed to selling moving services to major corporations for corporate employee relocations and providing full-service relocation programs to Fortune 500 companies, as well as smaller companies.

As a Certified Moving Consultant, Diane has held the positions of Corporate Relocation Specialist, Business Development Manager, and Director of National Account Sales for area moving and storage relocation companies. When Covid-19 happened, it affected the moving industry quite significantly and she switched gears (and industries) and is now the Director of Business Development for Union Press, a family-owned printing/promotional and apparel items, company which has been in business for over 85 years.

Diane is a professional and well-connected corporate sales leader who provides strategic client solutions. Her favorite part of sales is working with people, problem-solving and helping clients with their product or service needs.

Diane has an entrepreneurial spirit and in 2015 formed The Leads Group (#TLG), a networking group supporting and helping connect small businesses and business development salespeople. This influential group recently hosted a Zoom meeting featuring Senator Coons.

In addition, Diane is a member of the Central Delaware, Delaware State, New Castle, and Delaware Black Chambers of Commerce, and serves as the Delaware chapter program chair for the International Facilities Management Association. She also is a member of several other organizations and serves on the legislative committee and the Cares committee supporting Delaware communities.
