• I worked solely for one radio station for the first year. After the first year of unprecedented success I would grow into sales for all 5 stations. Giving myself an opportunity to work with a very diverse demographic base and cross into multiple industries. • I was responsible for driving new local direct and agency revenue to the stations along with script writing and creating promotions. I was not given accounts to maintain, everything was created from scratch and as a result of my sales efforts. • I was very successful in increasing sales and share in the market. I was also responsible for creating promotions for extra visibility of our stations in the New Bern, Greenville, and Jacksonville, NC markets. My largest source of clientele came from word of mouth. Clients would typically request my services through advertising agencies because of my success in the market and work ethic/commitment to the clients that I displayed. • Each year in sales I increased revenue and market shares a minimum of 20%. • I was also involved in production of commercials and occasional on air appearances.
