Worked on key company initiatives to bolster sustainable forward movement and support the overall growth across our vast organization. - Collaborated with stakeholders and project managers on executive level driven projects- Collected and analyzed internal/industry data, assembled cost-benefit analysis, elicited stakeholder/subject matter expert feedback to build business requirements/visual process work- Produced recommendations that supported process changes resulting in more streamlined operations, cost savings and establishing best practices.

The freight market is at an all time level of disarray. What clients need now more than ever is communication, options and top tier service to function efficiently for their customers. My overall purpose is to bridge that widening gap and create relationships with LTL shippers that can benefit from the services and solutions FreightPros can provide.

Built and managed a customer base from Austin to San Antonio. Provided clients with excellent customer service, product knowledge and established genuine rapport. Researched and called on potential qualified prospects and successfully signed new accounts with higher chance of retention.

Responsible for growing existing customer's purchases and closing new accounts. Retention of customers credited to understanding their needs and pitching new ideas with unique products and preparation that can increase margin and create their clientele 'stickiness'. Managed over 25 customers in a rural sprawling territory presents the challenge of suggesting products and ingredients that they have not been exposed to or don't believe can be successful menu additions. Used my culinary background to demonstrate recipes in their kitchens and showed first hand that if they like it, there's high probability that their customers will too and will pay for it.Utilized internal reports to identify categories lacking in sales and creating strategies on how to approach gaining business in those areas. Formed strong relationships with various contacts within the accounts to maintain the overall relationship and keeping in touch if they move to another potential customer. It's also helped to learn what their ideas are and incorporate into presentations to the decision maker(s).
