Vinny Peone Accepts SAMMY Award

Eastern Security Services’ Vinny Peone, 33, was honored last week as the recipient of the inaugural Marketer of the Year award at the 31st annual SAMMY Awards in Las Vegas.

The SAMMYs (Sales and Marketing Awards), hosted by industry-leading publication Security Sales & Integration, recognize top sales and marketing efforts within the security industry. Finalists and winners are selected for excellence across various categories, ranging from best social media campaigns to top-tier video advertisements.

This win marks a total of four SAMMY Awards since 2023 for Peone. Currently serving as the Director of Marketing for Eastern Security Services, Peone has spent nearly five years with the company, overseeing its brand growth and digital strategy.

“When I started marketing for Eastern Security Services… my focus was on authenticity. Replacing stock imagery and “AI slop” with real people, real success stories, and occasionally humor. Celebrating the stories and achievements of the quiet professionals on our teams," said Peone.
