My Story

I have been involved in the sales arena for pretty much all of my working life. After leaving school with a few 'O' levels and, much to my mum and dad's disappointment, no 'A' levels I started at Lloyds Bank in Blandford Forum.

I quickly made my way into sales as an authorised representative tasked with offering customers the range of products the bank sold at the time, pensions, life assurance, credit cards and the like. This quickly became soulless and I decided to look for something a bit more enjoyable.

By now I had been moved by the bank to Andover and decided to leave and join a local company who sold automotive paints and materials. I spent my days driving around in a Ford Transit van visiting body shops and selling from the back of my van. Good times but, as a family business, there was little opportunity for moving up and corporate ladders so I decided to leave to join a Vauxhall dealership locally as a local business specialist who wanted to take on sales people who were not from a car sales background.

Having always been very interested in quality cars I eventually saw an opportunity to join a Mercedes franchise in Southampton where I worked for six fantastic years promoting the Mercedes and Smart product to, predominantly, fleet and local business.
