      I was brought in to grow the tackle department from a small operation into a legitimate money-making asset for one of the largest bass boat dealers in the nation. I handled the business operation of an internal $1.5M tackle shop within $26M Fun-N-Sun Sports Center. Primary duties included retail sales, inventory management, national supplier negotiations, and developing advertising and marketing strategies for the tackle shop.
