Selling the Linsar LED & LCD range of TV's into 60+ independent customers. An almost unique proposition that worked very well for me. Customer & consumer support was first class, meaning that the 5 year domestic warranty, or 3 year commercial one, on offer, opened many doors for the product. Every TV had Freeview HD on board and every model was SMART, so there was nothing not to like!

The company was then purchased by the Tempo Group from Australia, who decided not to retain the services of any sales agents in the UK - including myself. Show less

Selling the Alphason A/V furniture range on a commission only basis to all points west. 2006 being a spectacular year for sales into the trade, due to presence of few competitors (4 significant ones) and a superb product range. This market went into free fall after the 2008 financial crisis, stand prices reducing by perhaps as much as 50% and the competition increased to just under 20 competitors when I left Alphason at the beginning of 2009

Servicing all independents within geographic territory of Wales, Shropshire, Hereford & Worcestershire, Gloucestershire, Avon, Somerset, Devon & Cornwall.

This was a significant challenge, taking on every other UK TV supplier, some of whom had lower pricing at the time, but fortunately, price wasn't the ultimate reason for supplier selection.

An enjoyable introduction to the world of consumer electronics, started at age 23, spent 11 happy years there servicing the needs of independent retailers in Wales and the adjoining English counties. Experienced huge sales growth as Toshiba became a household name. Thanks to Grainger Kitt & Derek Jeffs for giving me an opportunity that shaped the rest of my working life.
