Annie's Profile

Experience Summary

Hello, Just a little bit about myself to give you a better insight of how my experience and qualities can contribute to future campaigns as a Brand Ambassador for your company and clients. I have worked on many campaigns in the past, ranging from the ‘cosmetic’ and the ‘edible’ to the ‘functional’! From perfume and razors to cereal bars and laptops. I enjoy it all!! To keep it simple, I have chosen to list my qualities, which are as follows: Well presented and well spoken Excellent timekeeper, trustworthy and reliable Consistently obtaining good scores and feedback from store managers Extremely customer focused and attentive to the requirements of individuals Gently persuasive without being pushy Explaining selling points and benefits in a way that the customer will understand Reporting and feedback always returned before stated deadlines I have kept my store scores, feedback and comments over a number of years for different campaigns as references, and these are available on request.
