Lauren Arant Email & Phone Number

In 2008, I combined necessity with passion when the economic crisis impacted my career in global logistics. With my top priority of helping people being closely aligned to Roche Tissue Diagnostics’ motto, “Making Sure Patients Get the Right Treatment at the Right Time,” I applied my expertise in consultative solution selling and relationship building to promote cancer diagnostics to those who needed it most. In less than 9 years at Roche, I:• Grew my territory 4-fold to $4M in annual revenue;• Beat my quotas every year by up to 200%+; • Built loyal relationships with clients that ranged from parents of cancer patients to the Mayo Clinic.Always keep moving forward. This philosophy has guided my decisions personally and professionally. While I maintain a healthy relationship with the details, I don’t allow myself, my company, or my clients to be stunted because I overthought an issue. I drive the right sales process through to timely execution from the initial prospecting meeting through negotiations to closing and management.I build trust, confidence, and loyalty in any environment, including situations involving lower-priced competitors, by actively listening to understand. I create need and drive sales, while delivering solutions that truly meet clients’ requirements by gaining insights into what people value. As a result, customers are delighted and company goals are achieved.In any industry – healthcare, global logistics, and private industry – I master products and services until I am the sought-after subject matter expert. I combine this subject matter expertise with my ability to connect with people to overcome objections, close sales, and develop relationships that stand the test of time.Early in my career, a DHL executive taught me the art of sitting on a problem and responding calmly and rationally. After 2 years of improv classes, I learned to quickly yet thoughtfully and creatively respond in critical situations. These experiences led me to build a reputation for honesty, integrity, and emotion-free decision-making. Never assuming, judging, or injecting hearsay, I deal solely with the facts, consider other points of view, and respond with wisdom, compassion, and empathy. Outside of work, I love getting my hands dirty! As a master gardener registered with the state of Florida, I educate novice gardeners on native Florida plants and advocating/ teaching the importance of pollinators. “When you can’t control what’s happening, challenge yourself to control how you respond to what’s happening. That’s where your power is.” Unknown
