Steve Sav Joins Evolved Novelties

LOS ANGELES — Evolved Novelties has tapped Steve Sav for the role of executive sales director, effective immediately.  

Sav makes the move after 15 years of sales and management experience at Pipedream Products, and 10 years of buying for companies like Spencer Gifts, Claire’s and QVC.

“[Evolved Novelties President] Greg [Alves] has put together a world-class sales team that is trusted and respected throughout the adult novelty industry, and I want to be a part of that,” says Sav, who received the XBIZ Senior Leadership Award in 2017. “Also, their toys are incredible. Evolved is pulling out ahead each year with new innovations and unique designs. There’s so much for people to get excited about in terms of putting new ideas on the shelf.”

Sav brings his international expertise to the job, having managed not only accounts in the U.S. and Canada, but also Russia, Kazakhstan, South Africa and Asia.

“Connecting with people is what I enjoy most, so I’m laser-focused on the customer’s needs and meeting their expectations,” Sav said. “I’ve done store trainings and presentations for groups of five to 150, and they’re always eye-opening, always helpful. There’s nothing like getting in front of the customer at a brick-and-mortar store.”

Alves says that the company “couldn’t be happier to welcome Steve to the team. His reputation precedes him as one of the top salespeople in the sexual health and wellness space, and we’re very excited to have him on board.”

The company says that between Sav’s new position and Evolved’s European headquarters in the Netherlands, run by Raymond Houtenbos, it is confident about new opportunities for the upcoming year and their next level of success around the globe.
