Sales Manager

Professional Objective & Profile
In the most basic of terms my job as a professional salesman is simple,
"Find People to Sell to and Sell to People I Find". As a high-energy, goal-
oriented salesman, I am seeking a position that will benefit your company
from 20-plus years of sales and territory management experience selling
industrial products with extensive knowledge and personal work in the
offshore and onshore Oil & Gas marketplace. The company I am interested in
is a company with a professional sales culture requiring a salesman capable
of penetrating new, major accounts while generating maximum business from
existing clients. I am of good character and honor and met and worked with
CEO'S of large companies down to the maintenance foremen and laborers.
As you will see, from my resume, my sales experience has been primarily
selling cranes of various types including portable, fixed and overhead to
the oil industry as well as service, repairs, parts, and inspections. My
success has been due in large part to the customer loyalty I was able to
develop by taking "care" of them before, during and after the sale.
