What I'm looking for

I’m looking to own growth—business development, lead conversion, and digital marketing/affiliate programs—using CRM, analytics, and content to deliver measurable revenue, improve team performance, and build long-term client success.

I’m a result-driven Business Development & Sales professional who builds pipeline, closes high-value deals, and strengthens client relationships. I combine client acquisition, sales conversion, and relationship management with team leadership and reporting to drive measurable growth.

In roles like Sales Manager at BrandDrive, I researched and qualified high-value leads, maintained a strong CRM-based pipeline, and delivered tailored product demonstrations and proposals. I managed objections, negotiated terms, closed deals, supported onboarding, and monitored account health—consistently meeting monthly sales quotas and delivering strong conversion and retention.

As a Business Development Manager & Team Lead at 1803 Consultants, I led a BD team to hit revenue targets and KPIs within contract timelines. I trained and onboarded team members, oversaw the end-to-end sales pipeline, and collaborated on strategic growth plans—while also interviewing and shortlisting candidates for sales roles.

Alongside sales, I bring hands-on digital marketing and affiliate expertise: social media management, content and campaign creation, email marketing, Google Analytics, website management, and affiliate academy/program setup. I’ve also led trainings and webinars for SMEs and affiliate marketers, coaching them on financial/business management and improving funnel performance through ongoing tracking and optimization.
