With over a decade of sales and marketing excellence in both local companies such as Alpha Pharmacy and multinational companies such as Novartis, I have grown products sales in leaps and bounds; for instance, a 300% sales performance for Shiastu massager machine (a medical device) at Alpha Pharmacy, and a 92.6% growth in sales of Uperio for Cardiac failure in Novartis. Little wonder I was made a brand champion at Novartis, where I also became a epidemiology mentor for my team, and by extension a team lead, stepping into the shoes of my first line manager whenever he was on leave. With these excellent results, I proceeded to get a certification in brand and product management as well as going all out for my MBA, where I finished with a distinction. It is also worth to note that my bachelors in Pharmacy was also a distinction. With these extra qualifications, I got recommended for a business manager role with Genezee by IDA Foundation where I am currently growing market share and revenue by expanding product presence from 1 state to 15 states and counting in Nigeria.
As such, if you seek a seasoned sales and marketing professional to grow your market share and revenue in the shortest time possible, then seek no further, I am right here.
