As a Sales Associate at Salt Creek it was my privilege to introduce customers to our wide variety of high end furniture. Using a friendly and non-threatening approach, I demonstrated how Salt Creek can fit any furniture need with products of superb quality. Great customer service meant following up on orders and coordinating delivery needs. I strive to help my customers discover the piece they truly desire as opposed to offering what they see on the floor. I believe that any need can be satisfied with the right amount of determination and understanding. Main duties include sales, follow-ups, inventory management, and running stores smoothly even when there are large amounts of customers. Understanding diverse companies and bringing their products to our floors is key to success and Salt Creek prides itself on only carrying companies who represent our level of quality and meet our price points without sacrificing the customer's desire for unique or trendy styles. I have also worked as an office administrator during my time at Salt Creek as well as managed customer service. These duties included accounting, inventory management, setting delivery schedules, managing warranty claims, and coordinating with vendors.
