I worked with Scott Slaughter at Scott Niedermeyer and Associates. I can recommend Scott because he is an incredibly hard worker, he is technologically savvy, he is a mentor to his co workers and he is a great relationship builder. Scott was always one of the top sales producers for Scott Niedermeyer and Associates.

      Highly regarded by colleagues as diligent and technologically savvy, I mentored and trained independent sales reps to increase sales volume in their markets. While traveling extensively working with my reps in the field, I assisted them with presentations to furniture dealers, architecture and design community as well as end users. I challenged reps to balance time for multiple manufacturers and maximize their quality and sales yielding face-time, focusing on where they should spend their time for optimal return. My accomplishments at Via Seating include: • Collaborating with sales team for greater than 35% increase in sales volume in the region over 3 years. • Key leadership driving warranty changes. By including labor in warranty, sales increased and dealer relationships improved. • Directly driving $250K in sales through sales presentations to end users. • Coaching 24 sales reps within 10 rep groups one-to-one on challenges, struggles and growth opportunities providing encouragement and support, resulting in higher rep engagement, sales volume and success. Rolling back dealer discounts to provide better opportunity for sales and better dealer margin.

      I managed all facets of operations in Wisconsin, including sales, design, project coordination and installation. I oversaw offices in Madison, Milwaukee and Wausau and developed partnerships with limited manufacturers becoming expert in those lines and established strategic partners in the region. I also steadily grew overall volume and strengthened relationships in the market. Highlights during my time at Interior Investments include: • Growing overall volume by 300% in the first three years from $4M to $12M. • Developing key manufacturer partnerships resulting in a reduced number of vendors. Within one year, 90% of volume came from 10 vendors, which was down from 300-400 vendors the previous year. • Maintaining over 20% market share in a region with over a dozen other firms. Additionally, customers appreciated my ability to provide high levels of customer service and attention to detail.

      As an independent manufacturer’s representative in the southern Wisconsin market for KI Companies and Krug, I utilized focused direct calling on individual end users who were buying and specifying office furniture in the market and in the architectural and design community. • I implemented new direct strategy of going to market, dramatically changing overall sales success. This strategy, along with a concentrated effort to maximize face-to-face selling time using a top 75 list, enabled great success. • I was consistently ranked in the 10 KI sales reps nationally in market penetration year after year, earning KI Presidents Club Award first three times. • We were awarded Reps of the Year 4 times during my 10 years with company.
