Rob Phaneuf Receives Nomination for 2015 XBIZ Exec Awards

LOS ANGELES — Veteran industry executive Rob Phaneuf, the vice president of product development for Pipedream Products, has been nominated for Community Figure of the Year at the XBIZ 2015 Exec Awards.

With more than 13 years of experience in the adult industry, Phaneuf is an established expert in product development, creative design, art direction, corporate branding, copywriting and mass media marketing.

According to XBIZ’s Executive Awards website, those nominated for Community Figure of the Year represent the spirit of the adult industry. They are a shining example of strength, character, and business acumen.

With his positive approach to business and contagious smile, Phaneuf also has a novelty blow-up doll made in his likeness that continues to top retail sales charts around the world. Phaneuf represents "the perfect balance of business and pleasure for the adult novelty industry, and he never seems to blush at his alter ego’s celebrated global success," the company said.

“I’m both honored and humbled to be nominated for this position, and I’d like to thank XBIZ and their staff for this incredible recognition,” said Phaneuf. “If you know me, you know I wear my heart on my sleeve and I’m passionate about everything I do! Midget Man would also like to thank everyone for your continued support… Remember–it’s not a party without Pipedream Products in the house!”

Since joining the Pipedream team more than 10 years ago, Phaneuf has been an instrumental part in Pipedream’s rapid growth and expansion.
