Sales Manager

Summary
Fascinated from a young age by automobiles, I've built my path around my passion.
I love taking on new challenges and manage them in a professional and dedicated way.
I consider myself a positive person and I usually inspire those around me, as a mentor.
Analytical but also intuitive, I strive to achieve my goals keeping in consideration to bring positive experiences to those around me.
Some of my favorite quotes are:
"If opportunity doesn't knock, build a door." - Milton Berle
"Start by doing what's necessary, then what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible." - Saint Francis of Assisi

- Utilised experience (now over seven years in automotive industry), know how and intuition to promote, modify and adapt sales. Under my management I have succeeded a 400% increase in new car sales over 3 years, net superior to industry trend (albeit it was a new-entry showroom with growth potential nonetheless).

- Recruited and hired professionals that have contributed to expertise and added value to the company in the sales department.
