Ambitious sales professional with expertise in logistics and account management.
What I'm looking for
I am an ambitious and enthusiastic professional with a strong background in logistics and account management. My experience spans various industries, where I have successfully developed and maintained relationships with clients, ensuring their needs are met with precision and care. I thrive in fast-paced environments and am driven by the challenge of meeting and exceeding sales targets.
In my most recent role as a Logistics Account Executive at Road Dog Logistics, I honed my skills in cold calling and negotiations, making 80 to 100 outbound calls daily to establish a robust carrier network. My ability to analyze market trends allowed me to provide cost-effective solutions for my clients, ensuring timely deliveries without claims. I take pride in my interpersonal communication skills, which have been instrumental in building lasting relationships with supply chain managers and business owners.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a commitment to excellence, whether it was managing healthcare interventions for high-risk members at the Council on Aging or coordinating community safety programs at Santa Maria Community Services. I am now seeking a full-time Inside Sales position where I can leverage my skills and experience to contribute to a dynamic team.
