  Audi of Richmond

  • Brand Sales Manager

    • Mar 2013 - Dec 2014

    When managing and developing a staff of 15, the constant challenge is always personal engagement. Through my time with this organization, I was fortunate to keep my team focused on daily objectives which assisted in achieving their own goals throughout the year. By doing this we increased sales volume, gross profit per unit and customer satisfaction to levels which we led not only regionally but also moved the stores rankings to the top 15% in the country. The bi product of this was higher inventory turns and lower inventory costs. Additionally because of the positive work environment and open door policy, the staff worked more effectively. My staff turnover after adjustments became non existent.
