(C) 260-***-****

I have experience in outside sales, prospecting, and cold calling. I am a good listener, have the ability to close sales, and can work alone. I have the ability to build good relationships, know how to build a territory and B2B sales. I am a team player, have a strong work ethic and the ability to self- manage.

We moved to Florida in October 2020. We took time to locate and purchase a home in Ellenton, Florida.

I worked as an Independent Contractor in Concierge Services through July 2022. In August 2022 I started to work as an Outside Sales Agent for Barbara Neilson, Editor of North River News in Palmetto, Florida. Please consider my resume.
