As someone who has been involved in sales, for all of my adult life, it has provided me the opportunity to compile a vast array of sales experience, especially in the business to business industry. I have managed people, budgets, and devised innovative marketing strategies. I have the ability to deliver results; find, develop and close on new accounts, while continuing to grow and produce loyalty with already existing accounts (commercial and governmental). The challenge of changing markets has spurred me to develop unique and adaptable sales techniques that increase brand and market awareness, while driving sales and profit growth.
