• Customized Proposals: Prepare and deliver persuasive sales presentations tailored to the unique operational challenges of each client.

• Continuous Certification: Commit to professional growth by passing at least one Microsoft certification exam monthly to maintain the firm’s gold-standard expertise.

3. Account Management & Operational Synergy

• Retention & Upselling: Proactively contact existing customers to cross-sell hardware and upsell advanced cloud features.

• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with the Accounting Department to ensure the accurate generation of Invoices, Purchase Orders (POs), and Quotes.

• Vendor Relations: Establish and maintain strong relationships with hardware vendors to ensure a seamless supply chain for integrated solutions.
