Sales Representative @ Love Realty is a real estate brokerage covering the GTA. I am highly focused on the downtown Toronto core. From September 2014 to Present (1 year 4 months) Mississauga, OntarioSales Manager, US Central @ About Softchoice: We're passionate about the potential of technology. Here’s why we believe there’s never been a better time to create the future. Technology is the great enabler. It transforms. And it allows people and business to achieve some pretty remarkable things. But taking advantage of the latest innovation is more complex (and risky) than many people would like. That's to say nothing about the challenge of maintaining the technology you’ve already got. For Softchoice, being a North American Solutions and Services Provider is about one thing: building great customer relationships by making it simple for organizations to use technology to grow their success. To do this we’ve created the most complete solutions and services offering anywhere in North America. That includes the expertise to take advantage of the latest innovation as well as tools and resources to make the most of your existing IT infrastructure. Of course, we know great capabilities only get you so far. When all is said and done, helping customers achieve better outcomes for their business really comes down to people. Make that exceptional people. In many ways, getting you to a better place is all about unleashing the potential of our people. We believe that when our people are encouraged to think BIG, to be of SERVICE to others, and to grow each and every day, amazing things happen. We delight more customers. We help solve bigger problems. And we make a bigger difference to our industry, our shareholders and the communities where we work and live. That’s why we’re here. To grow bigger and better by helping our customers leverage innovation to do the same. From July 2014 to Present (1 year 6 months) Toronto, Canada AreaSales & Marketing Consultant @ With experience on both ends of the spectrum: as hiring managers and as job seekers we found there was a real gap in the market for a sales specific job board; Higher Sales aims to fill that gap. As hiring Sales Managers it was our duty to source top talent. We would post on several job boards to attract quality candidates who were a good fit with our corporate culture. As Job Seekers we posted our resumes on several job sites, looked for new opportunities and hoped for the best. Throughout this process we noticed that a sales specific job site did not exist in the market. Great sales people work hard, understand business and know their clients’ needs. We were clients of the job site market and now we’re providing a service to others. The goal of Higher Sales is to help great sales people find great opportunities.
