Driver/Tour Guide

Apr 2000 - Oct 2006
This job required skills in sales, as well as proficiency in operational safety. Earned my Commercial Driver’s License. Used observation skills and made intuitions about the type of customers on board, then formulated my perception into the approach in which the tour and sales pitch were executed. The Ducks was my start in sales. At the end of every tour each driver would come up with an individual sales pitch and sell informational guide books which were made available for us by the company. My personal and effective sales pitch rewarded me as one of the top selling employees. Show less
