Providence Texture LLC is a 3 year old Startup offering 5-Axis Laser Services. I was the Technical Sales Manager of the Northeast, East Coast, and Canada. During my time there I worked extremely hard at gaining entry into the Plastics Industry. I successfully brought on many new customers and developed a pipeline throughout my territory. One year later, after leaving the company. They are hiring and working six days a week due to the seeds I planted and customers I landed while there.

Networked and cold called in order to locate key decision makers nationally for medium to large customers in a myriad of industries from an extremely technical sales capacity. Developed relationships with these individuals from an Outside Sales Perspective and many others in all departments within each company fostering existing and writing new business. Managing several multi-million dollar accounts from all aspects of sales (inside and outside), engineering, quality, and customer service. Overseeing (or physically entering) every order for all of my customer accounts from purchase order inception to material purchased, product manufactured, inspected, packaged and shipped. Over 70% of orders were expedited by customers which required material to be pulled in and a great deal of planning daily. Likewise orders were pushed out based on end customer demand or fluctuation in customer production schedules which required the same amount of attention. Due to a great understanding of the ERP system and procedures I was able to respond to customers quickly, ultimately being the advocate for the customer with Federal's best interests being the first consideration. Using ISell and Jigsaw along with social media websites located decision makers at potential customers and cold called contacts in order to identify the need for our services. Documented information in Microsoft Dynamics CRM. Federal let 13 of the senior managers go one day in 2012...which led me into Real Estate, Opening a Construction company, and many years of new adventures! I even went back part time at Federal in 2013 as an independent contractor to chase new biz for a few months.
