Experience

Aug 2007 – Present ACDC Dynamics PINETOWN

New Projects Sales Manager

This is a new division within this company, the role entails developing the company’s profile to developers Main Contractors, Architects Electrical Consultants, and Electrical Contractors.

To date I have secured accounts and orders within large companies, and we are 67% of our yearly target in a six month period. This has been achieved by cold calling on construction sites, and finding out all the relevant information, as to who is doing what.

Where specification has been made, we have managed to put our product in by pure persistence.
