Key Skills Assessment
Marketing Management –I developed and implemented strategic and tactical sales based on customer services. It was based on sales and marketing avenues to develop brand awareness and improve sales. Sales went to higher margin and grew our market share. In an industry that was shrinking yet, kept profits above the industry standards. I will establish a team that will be customer service based with profit margin on the top. Loyalty is the success to a company long term. The team I will build will have the values of customer first and profit, equal to the relationship of the client.
Sales Team Management –I will be committed to mentoring internal teams through the exchange of knowledge, experience, and goal sharing to drive sales and individual professional development.
