Sales Assistant Resume Example
Driven sales assistant, motivated to leverage strong background in wine sales and related positions. Develop strategic and successful merchandising strategies to meet and exceed objectives. Demonstrated excellence in fulfilling buyers needs and writing and submitting orders. As a sales assistant for SGWS, I have covered multiple routes for sales reps while they have been out, including the Pasadena route, Galveston route, and the League City route( HEB accounts). Over the full course of being in my current position, I have scored 150% on each achievement for the monthly PFP payout. In the past year I have gained a lot of experience in writing and submitting orders, and also learning easier ways to talk with buyers about bringing in new products. With the time I have had working with other sales associates, they have taught me great ways to build and assemble displays. When I was covering the Pasadena route, the buyers had me build multiple Chi Chi's displays, with cases ranging from 150 to 300 cases. I have helped out with numerous resets at Kroger's, HEB's, and Randall's, as well as running hot shots and picking up POS for sales associates. Over the time frame that I have been a sales assistant, I have worked hard to learn more about product knowledge and better ways to help customers find what they are looking for.
