In my own words

— Kyle

I am highly skilled in all aspects of retail, merchandising, B2B sales, purchasing, and account management.

I would bring my more than 20 years of knowledge and expertise to work for your company.

My sales and purchasing background has provided me with the excellent people and communication skills necessary to succeed in any customer service oriented role. I have a history of consistently meeting or exceeding sales and purchasing revenue and margin goals and have played a major role in increasing the sales and revenue of every company I have worked for. I am adept at creating and implementing successful sales, purchasing and merchandising strategies, and am familiar with marketing and promotional program management as well.

I am able to establish rapport with all levels of customers, vendors, as well as communicate with individuals in all levels of business. I have the ability to generate new business while at the same time increasing profitability. In addition, I posses a strong technical background and am able to bridge the gap between technical and non-technical individuals. I am a team player, highly organized and able to handle multiple tasks simultaneously.
