Dedicated sales professional with expertise in Medicare and customer service.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-driven sales professional with extensive experience in the insurance and customer service industries. My most recent role as a Medicare Sales Agent involved selling insurance solutions over the phone, where I successfully managed client relationships and achieved significant customer acquisition and revenue growth. My ability to work with major insurance carriers has equipped me with a deep understanding of Medicare Advantage plans and the needs of clients.
Prior to my role in Medicare sales, I served as an Account Executive at Intuit, where I leveraged my skills in outbound sales and customer education to drive business growth. I excelled in creating rapport with customers, identifying their needs, and presenting tailored solutions. My experience spans various roles in sales and customer service, including working with Bank of America, where I demonstrated empathy and problem-solving skills in handling escalated customer situations.
