Southern Linc, the wireless subsidiary of Southern Company (SO) has named Rich Wiltfang of Brunswick, Georgia, the 2022 Dealer of the Year. Wiltfang was the top sales generator of Southern Linc's independent dealer network.

"We are delighted to recognize Rich for his outstanding sales performance for our company," stated Southern Linc Sales and Marketing Director David Keith. "He has been an important part of our company's success for many years," he continued.

Earlier this month, Wiltfang celebrated his 20th year selling Southern Linc. He has lived in the Golden Isles of Georgia for more than 40 years and named his business "Somebody Call Me" because it was catchy, and it makes people laugh. "Develop yourself, get work done, and most of all have fun," Wiltfang shared when asked about this approach to successful selling.

Wiltfang was recognized at Southern Linc's recent 2023 Sales Summit in Gulf Shores, Alabama. He will accompany other high-achieving salespeople on a trip to The Grand Cayman Islands to celebrate their 2022 sales success as well.
