In My Own Words

16 years of many facets of Marketing, leading into 4+ years of Outside Sales.

I have always gone the extra mile in every job I’ve ever had, not just in hours and effort, but doing extra things to excel further in my positions. While that hasn’t always paid off to me directly, while in those positions, I have learned many things that I can apply every day to be better, and I’m thankful for what I’ve been able to teach myself.

I want to be able to apply all of these skills into the perfect position at the perfect company and together build that brand. I want to create and grow within a brand to bring both the company and myself to new heights.

After a very long week already, last night, with no word. No valid reason, no warning or notice, our entire Dealer Outside Sales Team was terminated after just 4 short months and locked out of everything. We made a lot of changes, progress, mended past relationships and signed up many new dealers. It was certainly a risk to accept this job, but I have been one to take those my entire life. When I look at what we have here, our home the things and experiences we have and have had, the amazing woman @cj_0426_ I married, young James never saw these kinds of achievements, never saw them to be possible, and well, here we are. As this chapter was forced to be closed, I feel oddly happy. I had feelings and suspicions that something was about to happen and that does not lead to happiness. I sit here typing after having done my best. Shoot, I worked 16 hours and drove 730 miles in inclement weather just on Tuesday. I can hang my hat on who I am and knowing this was out of my control. I believe I once again will come up from this. Maybe it will finally land me back in two wheel, which I owe my whole life to. Maybe running, cycling, fitness, sports; hear the @raiders need a GM 😂 heck even music. I have many passions that could lead to employment and happiness. I write this because I have no idea what I’m going to do, but I cannot go without work for long and a post got me a job before 😂😂😂 Keeping my head up and winning is the only option. Sure hope we are paid what we’re owed too! That will give me another few weeks of breathing room. Guess we will see! Hope everyone has a great day and safety in these freezing conditions. ❤️
