About
I am driven by an entrepreneurial spirt and a passion for customer service and sales I have been fortunate to have had the opportunity to own and manage a small business. The business know-how, resilience, tenacity and experience that I gained during these 15 years stands me in good stead to make a strong contribution within any company wishing to expand and grow.
I am highly motivated by working with leading and managing people, from recruiting the best talent to training and developing individuals to realize their potential in aspects such as time management, communication and technical skills. In my role as Sales Manager I have demonstrated my ability to develop and implement sales strategies and target-oriented metrics to drive sales which in turn serves to contribute to revenue and profitability.
A client-centric approach is critical to growing sales and I have applied my strong customer relationship experience to build, maintain and grow a loyal client base from which to extract additional sales.
