David Portmess

I am a dedicated and results oriented Technical Inside Sales Representative with a strong track record of achieving and exceeding sales targets in the industrial equipment sector. With over 6 years of experience at Konecranes, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to build lasting relationships with clients and deliver effective solutions that address their needs. My expertise lies in identifying opportunities for safety retrofits, components, modernization, and new equipment, and I take pride in my consistent recognition through the Konecranes Sales Excellence Awards from 2019 to 2022. With a keen understanding of customer requirements, I have successfully closed deals and consistently surpassed sales expectations, achieving remarkable milestones such as generating $3.3 million in sales in 2022. My background as an Industrial Crane Service Technician and Inspector further enriches my perspective, allowing me to intimately understand the technical aspects of the equipment I sell. This practical experience enables me to engage with clients on a deeper level, providing them with insights that go beyond sales pitches. I am driven by a passion for excellence and an unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction. My proficiency in various technical skills, including plasma cutting, hydraulics, and industrial maintenance, equips me to communicate effectively with clients, addressing their unique challenges and offering tailored solutions. As I continue to flourish in my role at Konecranes, I am excited to bring my sales prowess, technical acumen, and dedication to every new opportunity. I am committed to contributing to the growth of both my clients and the organization, fostering long-lasting partnerships built on trust and exceptional results.
