Michelle Ernst Email and Phone Number

Although my career strengths have led me into several industries, It is my hope to utilize my specific skills in event planning, project management, promotions, sales, marketing and account management in a highly-reputable upbeat, high-end brand environment. In my career, I have demonstrated that I am highly energetic, organized, reliable and determined, and consistently meet or achieve sales/marketing goals. I ensure commitments are met on all deliverables, problem-solve and take initiative innately, but recognize when to delegate, seek team assistance or take direction to maximize project completion. I have excellent client-facing communications skills, represent brands/companies very well and am highly capable of prospecting, networking, conducting benefit analysis and unveiling new opportunities. I have much experience with A-List event planning and client care.As Sr. Regional Merchandise Coordinator my branding skills were fine-tuned in New York at Calvin Klein, Isaac Mizrahi and TSE Cashmere for all East Coast accounts with the highest of visual standards. I have brand management skills and have managed accounts 300+ bars, nightclubs and restaurants for dozens of liquor brands in New York and KC for the world's two largest spirits distributors, planning and executing hundreds of promotions and celebrity events while consistently achieving sales objectives. My position in the travel industry allowed me to manage more 300+ agency accounts from implementations to quarterly financial reviews while maintaining lead pipelines, sales follow-up, promotional up-sell of ancillary services offered, and account contact list management for thousands of contacts. I am confident that the dual combination of bringing account management/sales with promotional activities has allowed me to gain valuable experience . I have represented many quality designers, brands and companies in my career and would truly enjoy matching my experience to a highly-reputable company.
