District Sales Manager for the Tool and Equipment Division, NAPA New Orleans.

Baton Rouge, Memphis, Indianapolis

Part of an elite sales team recruited by CARQUEST to promote sales in two specific product lines: Batteries and Rotating electrical. Primary responsibility is to convert independent store owners that are buying competitor's batteries on the basis of net cost, to CARQUEST by showing them the value of the CARQUEST battery line. Inventories in my stores are maintained and updated using regional sales data combined with vehicles registered in local area to create tailored inventories resulting in increased turns and profitability. Region includes an area that stretches from the Gulf of Mexico to Great Lakes of Michigan.

Part of a nine man sales team condensed from 35 to represent batteries and rotating electrical for CARQUEST. Primary job function was to grow sales through converting independently owned CARQUEST stores buying batteries on the basis of net cost to the more value added line of CARQUEST batteries. Region included Louisiana, Mississippi, Arkansas, Alabama and Texas. 25% sales increase for the state of Texas in 2011. Successfully converted 14 of 22 target store accounts in 18 month period resulting in an over $1 million dollar sales increase.

Responsible for representing 25 product lines in a three state area. Main lines include starters, alternators, water pumps, clutches, Dorman, and radiators. Consistently top rated Factory representative as judged by customer surveys and reviews. Numerous sales awards. In this role I saw a need to unite salesmen across the country by sharing ideas, files, and success stories, so I independently developed, created, and maintained a forum based website for my company that became a huge source of information for both current salespeople and new hires. Trained and educated store salesmen in a three state area on sales technique and product knowledge resulting in gaining 125 new battery stocking dealer accounts in nine months, netting over 1 million dollars in additional sales. Developed lessons and taught at local vocational schools. Grew territory from 1.5 dollars to 11 million dollars in ten years. Moved battery line from fourth in Distribution Center sales rank to number 1 product line in a period of 4 years.
