In December of 2014 I spent my weeks In Farmingdale, NY learning the ins and outs of a company called Accessories for Electronics(AFE). At the end of the month I helped to move the now acquired company from NY to RI and have been running the business out of the Calgreg Electronics offices in Warwick, RI since that time. In my time with Calgreg I have learned much about the quality side of the aerospace markets, maintained sales to reach 98% of goal in the first half of the year, and helped adapt some of our companies sales techniques by creating a web-based market place for customers to view current stock levels and purchase with a click of the mouse. My responsibilities within AFE included supply/ inventory management, shipping/ receiving of packages, customer service, and inside sales. Seeing my work with the newly acquired company AFE over the first six months I was given control of other accounts under the Calgreg Electronics Inc and Ritronics Inc names.

As an Operations Manager for Guitar Center you are responsible for most of the day to day process required to successfully run a retail business. This included but was not limited to: Running cycle counts weekly on inventory to insure that the stores inventory is accurate and up to date. Overseeing the warehouse, making sure that staff is properly stocking and organizing both the sales floor and the warehouse so that speed of sale may be maintained at a standard that does not disappoint our customers. Money handling, making sure that policy and procedure is being followed to insure security from the time the money leaves the customers hands until it is deposited with the bank. In addition to these responsibilities the Operations Manager is also required to continue to help train both the operations and sales staff in proper policy and procedure as outlined by the company.

Being on the sales side of any business requires an employee to be sociable, knowledgeable, helpful, and courteous. As Sales Manager at Guitar Center it was my responsibility to train all new associates in the basic sales techniques any good sales associate will need to succeed. In addition I would instruct the new employees on policy and procedure for the company, follow up with each employee on their metrics (GS, GM, etc.), help diffuse customer service issues. Holding this position at Guitar Center required me to easily work with others, unite the sales staff to focus on the goals that would better the store, and train all new staff to make sure they get the most out of their job.
