Bank of America Seattle, WA.

VP Manager of Investment September, 1987 to December, 1993

Sales

Increased total investment sales within BofA through re-aligning and

reducing the size of each rep’s sales territory, as well as moving the

sales representatives off the trading floor and into their respective

territories. This had the effect of moving the representative closer to

their clients and the branches they were responsible for, resulting in an

increase in repeat business. Between 1989 and 1992 we were the

most profitable per-capita Investment Program in the country, with an

average gross-per-rep in excess of million dollars each.

sales training program to help improve the reps’ sales skills.
