As a dynamic and growth-oriented sales and trade marketing professional, I bring a wealth of experience in crafting and executing successful strategies that drive revenue growth and increase market share across diverse industries, including FMCG, advertising, steel, and IT. My approach is rooted in comprehensive market research, analysis, and competitor assessment, allowing me to develop and implement promotional strategies that enhance brand visibility and market penetration.
I have a proven track record of leveraging SAP to streamline financial operations, manage ledgers, and facilitate customer payments, which has been crucial in maintaining strong financial relations with clients. My expertise extends to expanding market presence, as evidenced by my ability to increase brand visibility by 40% through targeted initiatives and market mapping across 200 shops. My success is underscored by my consistent delivery of measurable outcomes and exceeding expectations in dynamic and competitive environments.
Throughout my career, I have achieved significant milestones, such as enhancing sales growth and market presence at Amreli Steels by onboarding new primary customers and engaging secondary stakeholders. My strategic approach in analyzing the ROI of primary customers has been instrumental in identifying the most profitable clients, leading to strategic growth. Notably, I exceeded sales targets by 110% in FY24 through the execution of effective sales plans and campaigns that set a benchmark for excellence.
I am passionate about building and nurturing relationships, as demonstrated by my work in the advertising sector with Print Solutions, where I expanded the client base by addressing specific needs with innovative marketing and POSM solutions. I take pride in my role in managing key accounts such as P&G, IGLOO, and Olpers, where I drive business growth through effective team coordination and strategic partnerships. My dedication to enhancing customer engagement and satisfaction was also highlighted at the National Retailers Award 2023, where my cohesive marketing strategies and cross-departmental coordination were recognized.
