Senior Sales Representative/Account Executive

I am a talented, self-motivated professional with a 25-year record of

producing millions of dollars in sales for the organizations I represent. I

take pride in exceeding these organizations' goals and consistently

demonstrating high productivity and efficient work habits with minimal

supervision.

Professional Experience

Senior Account Executive

Marcus Evans, Inc. Chicago, IL 2006-2010

Within six weeks on the job, I was named senior account executive based on

my performance in selling executive summits. I dealt directly with CEOs,

CFOs, CMOs and other C-suite executives. My work focused on the energy

sector (Transmission Distribution, Renewable Energy and Power Generation).

As a consistent Top 3 performer in this organization, I helped to generate

weekly sales in excess of $400,000.

Account Executive/Senior Sales Representative

Ragan Communications Chicago, IL 1996-2005

I was a senior sales representative for the Corporate Communications, PR

and Management divisions. My clients included the U.S. Coast Guard, U.S.

Army, Baxter Laboratories, General Mills, General Motors and G.D Searle and

Co. My strength: an aggressive sales style combined with a unique

understanding of my customers' needs.

I also sold advertising space, newsletters, workshops, conferences,

sponsorships and exhibitor space. My efforts contributed to the success of

this $12 million enterprise.

Travel Consultant

Vacation Network Chicago, IL 1986-1995

I rented private villas, hotels and all-inclusive resorts to a large and

diverse client base. I arranged airfares, prepared travel documents,

reconciled accounts, negotiated refunds, inspected all properties and

confirmed reservations. I also worked closely with new hires to increase

their knowledge and enhance the company's overall performance. Over eight

years, I created long-lasting relationships with property owners and

brainstormed with hoteliers on how to market their properties and increase

their business.
