WELCOME WAGON-CARA MOCARSKI: Hamden Chamber Member Cara Mocarski Achieves

Sales Leadership Club with Welcome Wagon for 15 Consecutive Years 

Cara Mocarski, a member of the Hamden Chamber, has been recognized for attaining President's Sales Leadership Club for her regional work with Welcome Wagon.

She achieved this prestigious achievement for the 15th year in a row from Welcome Wagon, a nationally recognized new mover marketing company based in Florida. Only four Welcome Wagon outside sales representatives qualified for this top honor, which was based on exceptional sales performance. Mocarski placed fourth in the country and was the #1 producer in the Northeast. She currently serves as a Community Marketing Executive as well as the National Sales Trainer.

Although the days of door-to-door neighborly visits are a thing of the past, Welcome Wagon is still committed to connecting with new movers through their mailboxes and online. Today, Welcome Wagon has found the best combination with personalized print and digital offerings which include email marketing to local homeowners and renters, plus the addition of social media.  Recently, Welcome Wagon doubled its distribution of the new mover Gift Book to 3.6 million households a year and expanded into 48 states and across 4,500 markets. 

To learn more about Welcome Wagon marketing in your local community, contact Cara Mocarski at 203-331-2779 or cara.mocarski@welcomewagon.com. In addition, Welcome Wagon is hiring nationally and is seeking outside sales professionals. Please contact Mocarski about full- and part-time remote-based job openings throughout the country.
