Pop Tops Co. Inc. is an embroidery and silkscreen company supplying apparel and promotional products. My responsibilities included supplying custom quotes and follow-through on production of the branded apparel needed for staff, for give-aways, for special events & trade shows, for uniforms of all kinds: facilities management, food service, hospitality staff, and any group needing brand identity. I also created branded promotional products,including a HUGE variety of items, from alarm clocks to umbrellas and everything in between, for marketing needs of all kinds of companies and groups.

I called on individuals / businesses that had auto glass needs. Acme was insurance-approved and worked with ALL insurance companies.ACME provided service on ALL personal and commercial vehicles, BIG equipment, RV's and vintage vehicles. I helped to set up on-call services for multiple vehicle companies so they could keep their vehicles working. As the face of ACME Glass, I was active in several Chambers of Commerce on the South Shore and on the Cape; as well as several business networking groups, including South Shore Women's Business Network (SSWBN), Oceanside Business Association, South Shore Network Professionals, and Work It Wednesday Referral Network Plymouth Chapter ( a network group that I facilitate).

Signature Apparel, Division of TEES PLUS provided uniforms and corporate ID apparel as well as promotional product to all types and sizes of private and business clients. Tees Plus Production Departments embellished goods with printed and embroidered brands, logos or other artwork to help market your company name.

I was an appointment setter for 4 salespeople who sold computer network /hardware contracts. This gave me an intro to cold calling and really taught me how to track down the decison maker needed for the correct contact to be made. Very good foundation for further sales experience.
