Bio
Marie Brewer, CIC
It is a rare opportunity to have a sales manager like Kimberly who will support you, educate you and mentor you in such a way that your capabilities become strengths and your weaknesses become capabilities. My background has always been in customer service, but without a focus in sales. Kimberly has a way of nurturing you out of your comfort zone and next thing you know you're making those calls you had been putting off. She has a very real and practical approach to her sales technique, and sometimes its as simple as calling to say Hi and nurturing a rapport with your customer base. I was truly blessed to have had the experience of working under Kimberly's direction, and have found that even though I stepped back into a different career path, her insights and suggestions hold much truth and practical application. I am also pleased to stay she has had such an impact I still consider her a mentor and I still call when I need focus in my current career. Thank you Kimberly.

From the day I met Kimberly for my job interview as an inside salesman at All American, I knew what kind of person I would be dealing with for as long as I would know her. Kimberly's professionalism, problem solving abilities, quick thinking and positive attitude were some of the things that impressed me the most. Add that to a keen sense of reading people, making them feel relaxed and at ease while maintaining a high level of integrity. She has a strong drive for success in business and it shows in her word an work. If you're looking for someone that can do it all....call Kimberly. You won't be disappointed, I guarantee it.
