I have considerable experience in business to business sales. Presently, I am involved in the field of automotive marketing which involves driving customers to new car dealerships through direct mail campaigns. Selling over the phone to owners and general managers of auto dealerships has been a great training ground for my sales skills. These gentlemen typically come from a sales background and it requires great acumen to close them. My skill set ranges from creating marketing programs to generate leads, cold calling the coldest of leads and getting them fired up about my offer,closing the deal, servicing and renewing the account. I am skilled at selling high ticket items to c-level Fortune 500 executives, that in combination with my training and background in selling high risk financial instruments makes me a valuable asset to any sales force.
