In today’s challenging global marketplace a company must be both nimble and opportunistic, since business and consumer demands are changing more frequently than they ever have before. Therefore, in order to thrive and grow, a company must continuously monitor and report marketplace changes, at the field level, and respond to them accordingly. This is where my expertise comes into play. I am a versatile and accomplished sales executive with more than 25 years of leading initiatives for driving sales, revenue, and profitability to new levels. Utilizing a well-planned and orchestrated sales approach, I have consistently delivered on targeted objectives for businesses ranging from start-up enterprises to market-leading corporations. While my experience has been concentrated primarily within the residential and commercial building industry, my proven leadership skills are readily transferrable to any type of business. Throughout my career, I have been recognized as key member of senior management teams, with a solid record of developing and leading high-performance sales teams that generate significant top- and bottom-line growth. Here is a brief sampling of results I have produced: • Successfully led multi-state sales regions across diverse direct and distributor channels. • Architected turnarounds of declining sales regions and restored profitable growth to record levels. • Secured key regional and national contracts with the top 100 national homebuilders. • Developed and cultivated relationships with top national distributors. • Consulted on the total restructuring of major flooring company, doubling the size of business in 24 months. Regardless of the challenge, I always deliver results that exceed expectations. I am hard working, straight forward, and always operate with a high-integrity business approach.
