customer base by 20%
CLIENT SERVICES
Developed a on line client loyalty program which could be used as a gauge
on what was being purchased in the store, with this in place it helped
replenish stock sooner and reduced purchasing mistakes by 50%
I used my networking's skills to match up my current clients needs with
products I did not offer, using this technique I had a very loyal and a
extensive repeat client base

manufactures in the country and creating these relationships I was able to

reaching their quotas, in doing this it made for great team work within my
sales organization and increasing greater profit.
