• Profit Center Manager

  • Oct 2018 - May 2022

  Leading the EMCO HVAC line-of-business in the Greater Toronto Area was an exciting task. EMCO is a decentralized business-model, allowing the Profit Center Manager (PCM) to take an entrepreneurial and autonomous approach to our business. Backed by the largest building wholesaler in the country, we are given ownership over our own business from brick-and-mortar planning to strategy and execution.I successfully developed a viable business plan, presented the plan and was awarded funding to execute on the plan. While developing excellent relationships with our select vendors, contractor-customers and my highly skilled staff, we were able to move from a lean start-up to a profitable, multi-million dollar wholesale distribution business in relatively short order.The business continues to grow and thrive today.

  As a successful start-up, OLE has developed a Cloud-based solution allowing organizations to facilitate all corporate training and development initiatives through a clean and seamless platform. OLE is a company made up of 8 bright and motivated individuals who have come together around an innovative product. If you're the individual responsible for corporate training and development within your organization, OLE wants to meet with you. If you're the end-user of your corporate training and development program, are unhappy with the current state of training, coping with a clumsy LMS, or learning solely within the archaic classroom model, contact OLE. I arrived at OLE with the mandate of designing and developing a new sales acquisition strategy. The new platform product had been developed and the uptake by many of our existing customers was tremendous. The belief was that OLE could significantly grow it's client base by means of adopting a new membership-based business model. It was my goal to develop an entirely new sales strategy and to also ensure it's subsequent success through the frequent acquisition of new client companies. As a small sales unit, OLE is pleased with the tremendous growth as it continues to experience fantastic results within the new model. Reach out to OLE and let them know how they can help.
