  Libra Drinks Wholesale Ltd

  Jul 2019 - Dec 2020

  Field Sales Account Manager

  My role within Libra drinks is to manage existing accounts by regularly visiting and reviewing their range of products and offering alternatives which would in turn increase GP for both the customer and Libra. I do this by effective questioning to assess their needs and their plans for the outlet, so I can propose a solution which best suits their needs. I am also targeted on growing my existing account base by prospecting. I do this by liaising with major brand owner’s and working collaboratively with them. I also use my connections within the local area and by visiting new/potential outlets and introducing myself to them. • Despite the global pandemic, in the first 6 months of Libra drinks’ trading year I have over achieved my target turnover by 20% versus the previous year.• Also within the first 6 months I have added and opened 20 new accounts to my area.
