(1888PressRelease) February 11, 2011 - Headquartered in Sarasota, FL, Brooke Chase Associates is a retained executive search firm specializing in the recruitment of professionals within the Kitchen & Bath, Plumbing, Cabinet and Building Materials Industries.

"We're very pleased with these results given our industry focus in a sector that has suffered through the worst downturn in decades," stated Mr. McElmeel. "In our recently completed Annual State of the Industry Survey of firms within the Building Materials Industry, 67% reported an increase in revenue in 2010 over 2009. As one respondent commented, 'For those who recognized in 2010 you cannot 'save your way out of a recession' and began to focus on gaining market share, 2011 will be a good year. For those who did not and continued to reduce staff and pull in their horns, the next 2 or 3 years will be difficult as they will be forced to compete on price alone in order to regain lost market share.' We're providing a free copy of the report on our website www.brookechase.com."

"Many of our clients, however, took advantage of opportunities in the market by adding to and upgrading their staff to enhance overall performance, and more importantly increase market share. They just didn't sit around wondering, 'who moved my cheese,' but responded early to market conditions."

Brooke Chase Associates mirrored its clients' proactive strategy, Mr. McElmeel explained. "To accommodate the increase in the number of searches we undertook in 2010, we added two researchers to our staff in Sarasota and one in Chicago. Additionally, we opened a new office in Birmingham, AL and are looking to continue this expansion. We feel that the market is improving and that 2011 should be another successful year."
