Account Executive

• Nov 2020 - Dec 2022

I was one of the first hires at Coffeehaus and wore many different hats, but the bulk of my focus was on growing the existing accounts and developing new business opportunities. In my time at Coffeehaus, wholesale roasting operations and equipment sales grew from 15 partnered locations concentrated in Metro-Detroit to 50+ across the entire State of Michigan. Two flagship cafes operated specifically by Coffeehaus were also opened: 1) Cafe Alto: 3100 Woodward Ave, Detroit, MI 48201 2) Coffeehaus: (The Somerset Collection) 2800 W Big Beaver Rd, Troy, MI 48084 In addition to wholesale coffee and equipment sales, I also oversaw Coffeehaus' retail sales channels and grew shelf presence of its private label brand from a handful of specialty grocery stores to national grocery chains such as Meijer. I worked directly with store-owners, buyers and category managers on pricing and merchandising strategy so they could optimize sales and provide shoppers with a memorable coffee buying experience. Coffeehaus grew beyond just roasted beans. Today, the company offers a wide breadth of products and services including: • Hospitality concept & brand consulting • Sourcing, installation and support of brewers, espresso machines, grinders etc. • Ancillary product sales (i.e. cleaning supplies, water filtration systems, etc.) • Coffee bar design • Barista training Show less

Commercial Building Sales & Rental Specialist

• Jun 2019 - Nov 2020

I was an inside sales rep for ESAPCO's ClearSpan Structures, tension-fabric building line. The majority of my customer contact occurred over the phone, however, I was no stranger to industry trade shows or client site visits. One year into my employment at ESAPCO, I was selected to assist in leading the sales initiative for the company's new line of modular rental buildings. My sales averaged $250k/month. You may be asking yourself, what exactly is a "tension-fabric" building? Included below are some pictures for reference. Some of the many advantages of these types of buildings are: • Fabric covers are rated for 15+ years & let in natural light • Can be fully-customized and engineered to local building codes • Fast production lead time of around 2-3 weeks • Quick and easy construction • Can be installed on any foundation option imaginable Industries of all kinds find tension fabric buildings useful. I worked with companies large and small in a variety of different sectors, including: Agriculture, equestrian, athletics, oil/gas and recycling. Next time you're driving around, keep an eye out for some fabric buildings. It won't take long to find one and you'll start noticing them just about everywhere you go. Show less
