Sara Velasquez
@saravelasquez
Bilingual sales and customer success professional driving 85%+ warm lead conversions and retention in KPI-driven markets.
What I'm looking for
I’m a bilingual sales and client relations professional with progressive experience in high-volume B2C sales and customer success across healthcare, retail, and aviation. I’m fluent in English and Spanish (C1+), and I bring a trust-first, results-first approach to managing complex relationships while staying focused on KPIs.
I’ve consistently performed as a top seller by delivering an 85%+ warm lead conversion rate, managing large pipeline volumes, and protecting revenue through critical metrics like No Data rates and churn risk. I’m also skilled in CRM operations, pipeline management, objection handling, and bilingual support—so I can help customers move from first contact to retention with measurable business impact.
