**** - ******* - ***tup.com, Founder Temecula Valley Singles - In just over
3 years, Temecula Valley Singles (TVS) is now the largest Meetup group of
its type in the South Riverside County and North San Diego County. As the
Founder, my primary roles are recruiting new members, planning & marketing
a wide assortment of events. Using my Internet marketing skills and
personal circle of influence TVS is now well known and respected among
local area restaurants, wineries, club, and theater and event
professionals.
2010 - Present - Meetup.com, Founder Temecula Valley Events - Recently, I
started Temecula Valley Events in an effort to expand upon my professional
relationships with local restaurant owners and managers, as well as,
winery, club, theater and event planners. This online events calendar hosts
all local area events.
2005 - Present - Owner/Broker, New Construction Source, Inc. - As the
owner/broker of a Real Estate brokerage firm specializing in new homes
sales, I utilized my network of industry contacts to become the first New
Home Outside Consultant selling new homes for all national builders. I
developed and maintained a database of local area new home communities. In
addition to the sales skills described below, I first designed and
established a well recognized corporate identity including, logo, ad
layouts, signs, billboards, web-site, as well as, a long list of marketing
material. I further branded NCS, Inc. using Internet web-based marketing
and Internet networking via e-commerce, e-marketing. I alone achieved and
supervised all sales, loans and escrows. I also handle my own accounts
payable/receivable.
1995-2005 - New Home Real Estate Agent/Broker - I was recruited by the
Division President of Richmond American Homes after I had successfully
completed an interior design project for their model homes. My background
in interior design provide the construction knowledge such as,
understanding the building process and terms, reading blue-prints,
selecting options upgrades and of course sales. For 10 years I sold out
several large new construction communities for four national builders;
Ivory Homes, KB Homes, KHovnanian Homes and Richmond American Homes. In
these positions I consistently managed between 50-100+ escrows
simultaneously. My primary role was to meet or exceed sales goals while
maintaining 100'% buyer satisfaction. Residential New Construction is a
fast-paced, high-stress industry. Because every buyer and every home is
different, effective management required daily hands-on supervision of
every aspect of the construction process. Success was dependent on
meticulous record keeping, paperwork, as well as, coordinating innumerable
schedules, management meetings, reporting, and being a liaison between the
construction & customer service staff, management and the customer.
