Carrubba's Sales Team is Recognized for Their Contributions to a Record Breaking Year
-- The entire Carrubba sales team and our sales support and customer service team are the focus of this issue, as we acknowledge their perseverance, dedication, and role in being a driving force that made 2018 a remarkably successful year for our company.
-- Thanks to the determination of Carrubba's nine sales representatives and four members of the sales support team, we saw prominent increases in new customers and sample requests, a resurgence of existing products, and a significant increase in the amount of products shipped in 2018.
Shown from left to right: Damon Sementilli (director of strategic development), Kerry Ostrosky (Northeast sales representative), Stacy Fernandez (sales manager-Western region), Joyce Hildebrandt (senior vice president), Mike Massie (client relationship manager), Danielle Franey (account manager), and Edward Windsor (vice president of sales)
Joey Carrubba (Southeastern sales representative)
Rene Martinez (account executive and technical advisor)
-- Edward Windsor, vice president of sales, said that there are several factors that contribute to the success of Carrubba's sales team. "Building long-lasting relationships and friendships is the name of the game, and each sales person has the unique ability to develop these relationships with our clients," said Windsor. "These relationships build trust with our customers and motivate them to choose Carrubba as their first choice whenever they need fragrances or extracts." The department is made up of a blend of unique, competitive personalities that help to motivate and support one another. They believe that it's their success as a team that's most important. Each sales member also has a vast knowledge and passion for our products, so they're able to direct our clients needs to the appropriate Carrubba product. Executive vice president, Jim Windsor, said that he would like to thank the Carrubba sales team for a job well done and the record sales show that their dedication and professionalism were on full display. "We also want to thank the many people behind the scenes that work tirelessly to make their jobs easier," he said. "They truly make the sales team go and, without their efforts, it would not be possible." We would also like to thank executive consultant, Ed Matson, for continuing to be a mentor to the sales team and everyone else at Carrubba Inc.
-- Leah Kuhnen (sample coordinator), Deborah Weh (director of internal sales), Belinda Pacowta (laboratory office manager), and Alison Fitzgerald (laboratory affairs manager) are the hard-working women that form our sales support and customer service team. While a customer's main point of contact is their sales representative, this team is the other crucial line of communication for our clients. The group is essential to the sales team, and plays a significant role in customer service and satisfaction. They work diligently to make sure that all of our sample requests and purchase orders are
completed to each customer's specifications, and are shipped out on time and with all of the complex, necessary documents. Steve Finger, managing director, said that the group knows each customer's unique needs and ensures that the customer's requirements are taken care of from sample request through purchase. "The team is critical to supporting Carrubba's mission statement, which part of it states is 'to offer the best products and the best customer service, with a complete dedication to the client's success,'" he said. "Without this team, we would not be able to achieve the goals of our mission."
