FARGO, N.D. — Enchantasys is celebrating a 2022 XBIZ Exec Awards nomination, retail edition, for Chief Visionary Officer Kim Patterson in the category of "Progressive Leadership."
"Kim has worked tirelessly with her business and life partner Jim Patterson, as CEO, to build one of the fastest-growing lingerie and pleasure product chains in mid-America. Together they have bootstrapped a brand that has become known for extraordinary customer care, well-trained employees and a commitment to providing quality sex education in the communities they serve," noted a rep.
Nominees were selected based on several success factors including leadership, business acumen, community influence and overall career achievement as submitted by members of the adult industry via XBIZ.net.
Voting for the 2022 XBIZ Exec Awards is now open. Industry members may cast their votes here.
"I am honored beyond words for my name to be listed with all these amazing people. This nomination makes me feel seen, which up to a few years ago would’ve made me very uncomfortable. I have started to realize sometimes it’s not so bad to be seen, it means you’re making a difference," Patterson said.
"There are certain customers that touch you in a way that you will never forget. I love making a difference in someone’s life. Those are the moments I hang on to," she added.
The rep noted "everyone at Enchantasys would like to congratulate all the XBIZ Exec Awards nominees. It brings us joy to celebrate with our peers who also work hard to bring more pleasure into the world."
The XBIZ Exec Awards will be presented as part of the annual XBIZ Honors ceremonies, with the online industry edition hosted on Jan. 5 in conjunction with the XBIZ L.A. conference and the retail edition on Jan. 11 during the ANME/XBIZ Show.
