Customer Support Manager at GEAR UPWITH CPR Inc., improving response times and turning training inquiries into class registrations.
What I'm looking for
At GEAR UPWITH CPR Inc., I manage customer support operations for a US-based CPR training business, responding to training inquiries and coordinating class schedules and registrations. I also handle escalations and support customers with clear updates about schedules, certifications, and service changes.
I coordinate American Heart Association class postings and training schedules, then process post-training documentation, audit paperwork, and manage certification issuance through applicable AHA processes. I’ve developed standard operating procedures, FAQs, email templates, and instructional guidance to support consistent workflows and improve response times.
Previously, I managed customer support at Solitaire Digital Soluti, where I supported client relationships and business development and assisted a team of web developers and digital marketing professionals. I also co-founded EZVASTU.COM, overseeing branding, lead generation, recruitment, and team training.
