I brought a wealth of experience from my time at Kimberly-Clark and ACNielsen to help American Textile Company embrace and implement fact based selling as part of their overall sales and marketing strategy.

This later evolved to an integration of shopper marketing becoming an integral part of the category management team.  

We serviced most major retailers in North America including Walmart, Target, Kohls, Bed Bath and Beyond, Kmart, Sears and dozens of others.  Collectively, my team helped manage retail sales and sales strategy for over 28,000 retail locations.  

Our sales and category management approach was new to the textile industry and allowed us to grow the business twofold over a five year period.

I also implemented and oversaw a site wide SEO project, initiated online customer service program design and implementation, developed and implemented a marketing and branding strategy that catapulted AFI to be within the top 500 sellers in the entire eBay marketplace and the top 10 sellers within the sporting goods category.
