When people ask me why I chose my career in sales I tell them that sales really chose me. Like many young people I never really knew what I wanted to do in my early 20's. It was through falling into a sales role that I really found my passion for sales, but more so my passion for people. My sales career has spanned more than 16 years (mostly in advertising and marketing) and whether I have been in a sales consultant role or leading sales teams, it has always been about connections, relationships, care, honesty and integrity. Understanding what a person or company wants to achieve and working alongside them to help turn their dreams and goals into a realty is truly what it's all about. You need to truly be able to listen in order to then utilise your skill set and put a plan in place. Raised in the beautiful Marlborough region my sales career saw me working across several industries until I moved to the big smoke in 2011 at the ripe old age of 30. I took up a corporate sales role at a media company as a media sales consultant, where I strategised with businesses (large and small) around their advertising campaigns. After two years I moved to a leadership role where I had the absolute privilege of coaching and mentoring sales consultants. In 2019, life saw another move where my husband and I moved back down to Marlborough to be closer to family. I worked for a large media company but specialised in the real estate sector, and so began my love of property. It was then that I knew that was my next path. To walk alongside clients and customers to be part of their property journey, and what could be better than that. Let’s take the journey together.
