Work History

Internet Sales Manager

Kia Of Downtown Los Angeles
Los Angeles, California

Marketed myself as an automotive sales professional through TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook, building a personal brand that generated customer inquiries and vehicle sales.

• Leveraged social media platforms to attract potential buyers, create new sales opportunities, and generate business beyond traditional dealership-provided leads.

• Managed Internet leads through phone calls, text messages, email, and other digital channels—worked to convert inquiries into appointments and completed sales.

• Converted online engagement into vehicle sales by building rapport, responding to inquiries, and guiding customers through the purchasing process.

• Built long-lasting customer relationships through personalized communication, trust, and continued engagement beyond the initial sale, creating opportunities for referrals and repeat business.

• Followed up consistently with active, inactive, and previously unsold customers to revive opportunities and generate additional business.

• Took ownership of my personal growth and sales performance by consistently finding new ways to promote myself, reach potential customers, and expanded my customer base.

• Demonstrated leadership through initiative, accountability, persistence, and a willingness to go beyond the standard expectations of an automotive sales representative.

• Developed strong negotiation and objection-handling skills while working with customers to find solutions that aligned with their needs and budgets.

• Worked with customers across a variety of credit profiles, helping them understand financing options, APR, lease structures, down payments, and monthly payment opportunities.

• Applied an entrepreneurial mindset to automotive sales by treating personal marketing, customer relationship management, and lead generation as ongoing responsibilities rather than relying solely on dealership traffic.
