Cris Burger, President of Sales

Cris Burger co-founded ADvantage Tape Advertising, Inc. more than 20 years
ago. With an AA in Alcohol Fuel Production and a BS in pre Vet-Med, he has
kept his Iowa farmboy roots firmly planted in the backbone of America - the
small businesses that have made this county what it is today.

Like many of his clients, growing over the years from small businesses to
larger ones, Cris has not let success dilute or diminish his philosophy of
bending over backwards for a friend and going beyond what is called for when
asked. These philosophies, along with giving someone your word, and
standing by that, is why ADvantage Tape Advertising is the success it is
today.

Surrounded with a wonderful wife and 3 great children, supported by
fantastic co-workers, and spending time relaxing on Lake Minnetonka, Cris
and ADvantage Tape is more than prepared for the next 20 years.

Sharon Erion, Accounts Manager

I believe in coupon advertising! While raising my family of three boys, I was always looking for a bargain and often turned to the back of the cash register receipt for useable coupons. I still use coupons today.

As Accounts Manager, I process all contracts, send out invoices, apply all payments and so much more. I love my job and look forward to helping you.
