I am passionate about sales, marketing and business development since I earned my B.S. in business administration on my own. I am empowered by the entire sales cycle and building long term relationships that accrue repeat business and revenue. I landed my first job after putting my self through college working for the director of marketing for Caloric Corporation, a high end gas range manufacturer. I organized and conducted sales training meetings nation wide. The director of marketing appointed me to represent the marketing department on the engineering change committee and quality improvement committees. I traveled the country working trade shows and doing sales presentations to large retail buying groups and utility companies for two years after which I was promoted to District Sales Manager of Maryland and Delaware where I increased sales 99.9% in my first year basically from 750,000 to almost 1.5 mil. My family and I decided to relocate back to Pennsylvania where I then found a very exciting career as a Commercial Sales Representative for Wells Fargo Alarm Services. I was the top performing Sales Representative for 6 of the 8 years I enjoyed working for them. Economy changes and my next love in sales was 9 years in the industrial flooring industry representing Stonhard for approximately 6 years and Questmark for approximately 3 years. I was awarded an all expense paid trip to Hawaii my first year with Stonhard for exceeding all set goals. At Questmark I earned monthly bonuses and plaques for exceeding all expectations and maintaining the top salesman status during my entire employment.
