I am an Exhibit Marketing Consultant for Skyline Displays Manhattan and have been with the company for nine years. For eight of those years I have been among the top ten Exhibit Sales Consultants in the country.
My background consists of a combination of advertising, marketing and sales experience. I have a BA in Pre-law, an MA in Media/Communications and a 6-year Continuing Education Certificate in Marketing/Advertising. All were completed at New York University.
After climbing up the advertising corporate ladder, from Media Buyer to Account Executive, I decided to jump off and pursue a career in sales. I accepted a position as a Sales Manager for B&B Italia, a high-end furniture manufacturer. After five years and one too many ten thousand dollar sofa, I decided I needed to be a bit closer to corporate America after all. That's when I began my career with Skyline. There was a bit of a learning curve, but worth all the effort.
Today my job consists of selling all services related to trade show and event marketing, customer development, as well as constant client contact. I gather all basic project information, including client goals, expectations, specifications, budgets, and deadlines. I establish production schedules, develop and present proposals, supervise production and direct creativity for all project components. I take full accountability for impact, pre-show creativity, at-show message delivery, production value, delivery and instilling client satisfaction and post-show follow through.
I love my career and the CTSM program has only made it better! |
