My role involves making sales on a daily basis, planning work and and overseeing activities of other sales people. On a day-to-day basis I handle packaging and evaluation and data entry at the end of the day. I am also responsible for data collection and evaluation of customer satisfaction and customer care.
Working in sales I have been able to develop confidence in handling other people. I have also mastered to positively take criticism. I have been able to learn to work under pressure and communicate to the employer and my colleagues effectively. I can also multitask a skill I never had starting here.
This programme is designed to promote a good relationship between us and the customers. Interacting with new people and being able to answer questions they raise is my best part. Being able to be part of the problem solving team is an honour. The most enjoyable bit is being able to contribute to the success of this organisation.
The structure involves contact and exposure to the available training resources. We cover the most important bits of sales that includes human relations, financial literacy, customer service and marketing. These areas form a foundation that ensure that our customers are satisfied and look forward to working with us and being loyal partners.
The employer has given me the opportunity to study further and supports my ventures into sales. Training programmes and exchanges have been constantly organised by the employer to give us the employees motivation to venture deeply into gaining skills to be best sales people. The employer has also provided resources that aid in smooth process.
I have received considerable help and support from the training provider when working towards perfecting the craft over time. The company in collaboration with the training provider has sessions that are set to help us gain more knowledge and improve our performance and in these sessions modules of sales and marketing is core.
With my skills and passion for sales I am able to perform efficiently on a daily basis. I am able to manage teams and also contribute. Driving sales is my specialty because that is primarily what I do. I am also able to effectively keep records and work towards profiting the organisation.
With sales in collaboration with other departments we organize training programmes that bring us together and we are able to learn from one another. We also have networking events that expose us to the qualified people. Aside from that we participate in community activities like cleaning the streets. We also play football yearly and do the best salesman award.
