Marketing, sales professional, and corporate trainer. Fluent in a combination of sales, marketing, and training skills including digital copywriting, digital & classroom training, cold calling, account management, social media management, branding, new product development and coaching.***Guiding Philosophy:In marketing, market development and sales in general, you need to know your stuff. It's just that simple. To me, nothing gives me more confidence, or boosts my ability to succeed, than knowing my product and services as best as I can. The term "Subject Matter Expert"​ may be overused, but I don't think it's a cliche - to me it means you've put the effort in to be more to the client than a contact or "salesman"​, you're a resource: both to the client and your own company.In the world of advanced industrial plastics, and primarily dealing with first time customers, I know there can be some nerves when considering the significant investment these products often cost. But by being able to answer your customer's questions both quickly and accurately, be it over the phone or in a quick email response, you will set their mind at ease. To me it's a powerful sales tool that really doesn't require a monetary investment - just personal effort to learn, and to not stop that learning cycle, every day.
