The Mabel Tainter Theater is an amazing historic theater in the heart of downtown Menomonie, WI. The theater runs a season of shows with local, regional, and national acts, and my job was to promote the shows, build our audiences, and grow ticket sales.For each show, I created all of the promotional materials, wrote press releases and worked with local media, developed show programs, and brought new life into the marketing activities of the theater. I was in charge of marketing for events such as the Fine Arts & Crafts Fair and the Summer Art Workshops. I organized a fun booth for the local Independence Day festival to build awareness and get kids involved in the theater.Specific projects I worked on include designing and laying out a new season brochure/calendar, implementing a new multi-show pass for frequent theater-goers, and helping to launch The Gallery Store, a visual arts retail store selling local artists' work.As an avid arts lover, working at the Mabel Tainter was not only fun, but great experience early in my career. It helped me gain understanding of the non-profit world and taught me how to think creatively to get the job done within a small budget.

On the sales floor of the HOM Furniture store in Sioux Falls, SD, I was part of a team helping customers find what they're looking for in home furnishings. This position was especially intriguing to me because I had kind of grown up in the furniture industry - my dad was an independent sales rep and retail buyer for furniture companies all my life and he was a great teacher in the art of sales. This position was commission-based, and being young and new to sales, it was a challenge. It taught me to work hard and listen to the customer...understand what they want, and what they don't want...and then help them solve their problem if you can. It also taught me persevere in the face of the dreaded "no, I'm just looking" response so often heard in sales.
