Summary
I run a small business doing appliance installation for residential and commercial. I am constantly seeking ideas and opportunities to help my business grow and move forward.
I am an electrician by trade with years of experience in both commercial and residential settings.
I am a dedicated appliance installer with many years of experience in residential and commercial installations, and known for my reliability and attention to detail.
Successfully managing multiple service appointments while maintaining positive client relationships to drive repeat business. As a detail-oriented appliance installer, I have received great feedback from customers and salespeople regarding the installation process and adherence to safety compliance.
Mechanically inclined and always eager to learn and grow within my role. My multitasking abilities enhance operational efficiency and contribute to customer satisfaction.
Accomplishments
- Took over running and organizing the company basically overnight, due to the founder of the company having to step down due to health issues.
- Worked by myself for 10 years, managed my jobs, then took on 3-4 weeks of backed-up jobs when the company was thrown in my lap. Had loose ends to finish up. Overwhelming to say the least, and pushed through to keep the company moving forward.
- Revamped a few things inside the business, new box truck, business cards for getting and keeping customers.
- Went from working out of the bed of my pickup to taking on all the responsibility and cost of running a small business without being prepared for the task.
