Objectives and Attributes

I am looking for a position with a company that prides itself on its reputation in the community, offers growth potential, and is a leader in the industry. A company that also offers uncapped earning potential is a must. I am a very organized individual and extremely detail oriented. I am a motivated self starter and very dedicated. I work well under pressure and am capable of working independently and am also a great team player. I am confidant with my abilities and eager to learn new things. I am always up for a challenge and find work to be very rewarding. I take my career seriously and am an extremely loyal individual. I have great communication skills, and am, very adaptable to many environments. I believe I would be an asset to any company, and I do not mind proving my worth. Although the fashion and beauty industry has mainly been my home for the past 28 years in various degrees, the skills I have acquired in business management, marketing, sales and PR, allows me to feel quite confident that I am able to master a wide variety of jobs, in many fields of business. I am also quite computer literate and have, created, marketed, and sold, several business software applications. I am very qualified for many positions. I realize that life must have balance, however I also know that to be successful, hard work and long hours may be part of the equation. Professionalism is the key to my success at all times.

Experience

I have been in outside sales for the past 8 years. I have successfully grown my territory from generating only $8,000.00 a week to over $20,000.00. I have encouraged the purchases of new products and also been able to grow the business of my accounts to the point of requiring the need for increased product purchases of items they are already buying. It has been my responsibility to maintain an existing client base as well as open and secure new accounts. I market and demonstrate the products I represent, I do in house education for my accounts and am instrumental in helping them market and grow their business. I conduct ongoing seminars for business owners, giving them the tool necessary to become more profitable in their industry. In the 2 years before this I was working for a small company marketing aftermarket auto accessories for up-scale automobiles such as Mercedes, BMW, Lexus, and Land Rover. I was the creative director as well as sales manager. Prior to that, I was the manager and marketing director for a small business with 85 employees for over 8 years. I was directly responsible for growing the company, implementing policies and procedures, creative advertising, training of employees, coordinating community events, financial projections and many other tasks associated with the fluid operations of a growing company. The months shortly before this position I was creating, marketing and selling new computer software for commercial use. Over the rest of my life time I have been involved in many exciting fields from small business owner to the business consulting industry and Real Estate. I have well rounded skills and my experience in the work place allows me to perform and succeed very well in many industries.
