Meghan McLaughlin
@meghanmclaughlin
I coordinate executive operations, B2B trade shows, travel, and buyer relationships for wholesale distribution.
What I'm looking for
At GDHWD & Eberle, I keep executive operations, buyer relationships, and trade show programs moving across wholesale distribution. I coordinate exhibit strategy, promotions, budgets, space layouts, travel, and on-site execution for 5–30 accounts at industry trade shows.
I’ve introduced systems for information sharing, reference materials, and order processing that reduce manual work across the team. I also manage four executive calendars, meeting coordination, PTO tracking for a staff of 10, account-related processes, and event itineraries.
I work with manufacturers to identify assortment gaps, recommend product-line updates, and negotiate terms across distributor, retail, B2B, and MRO review processes. My approach combines sound judgment under deadline pressure with dependable cross-departmental coordination.
Previously at CarMax, I managed new-car inventory, analyzed stock levels against consumer demand, maintained dealer relationships, and served as a cross-departmental operational resource.
