lauren cupido
@laurencupido
Salesperson with strong customer service, product knowledge, and administrative/data skills across retail and marketing environments.
What I'm looking for
I’m a hands-on sales professional who enjoys helping customers choose the right products, answering spare-part questions, and keeping the department running smoothly. In my current role, I assist customers with purchasing, explain the pros and cons of products, and support sales with careful stock follow-up, barcoding checks, and consistent department upkeep.
Across previous roles, I’ve built confidence in customer-facing work—from scanning items and handling cash in a retail setting to promoting cosmetics products and reaching targets. I also bring a service mindset from restaurant waiter experience, where I welcomed customers, took orders, served food and drinks, and handled bill payments while maintaining clean, tidy tables.
I complement my sales ability with admin and data skills developed through student assistant work and college administration. I’ve done filing, data capturing, and student registration, and I’m comfortable using Microsoft Word, Excel, Access, and PowerPoint, along with internet-based tasks like customer qualification, credit vetting, and speed/coverage checks.
