SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS:
Leveraging nearly 13 years of high-level consultative sales experience, solid work ethic, integrity, and competitiveness with extensive sales training from some of the most respected professionals and programs in the field (Burg, Covey, DiSC, Gerber, Hopkins, Prior, Rackham, Tracy, Werth, Ziglar, etc.), I’m able to make an impacting contribution to an innovative, pioneering organization positioned for growth. Furthermore, I possess strong business acumen, a technical aptitude, an ability to assimilate new material and learn quickly, thrive in an autonomous work environment, and am highly/money motivated. I have indeed refined the advanced skill set needed to succeed with a company that, despite a tough world economy, has sustained a trajectory resulting in strong growth and increased market share. My ability to engage ‘C’ level personnel in a strategic business issue dialogue effectively uncovers client/prospect needs, both implicit and explicit. Engendering trust, building rapport/relationships with top decision makers/end users, and ultimately eliciting their commitment is what I do best.
