About Bob Abel

Uncovering opportunities in wavering markets to drive revenue growth and increase sales and profits characterizes how I’ve delivered key value to my employers in sales and management roles, increasing sales by 35% while reducing turnover. As a trainer and motivator, I’ve played a pivotal role in propelling teams forward to excellence. Throughout my career, I’ve demonstrated expertise in achieving double digit sales gains, closing profitable deals, and leading productive negotiations, among other areas. A representative sample of my achievements included: • More than quadrupled sales, from $700K to almost 4 million for a high quality equipment provider to construction companies and industry contractors coast to coast. • Hiring, directing and development of employees and supervisors and arming them with the right mix of insights and skills to excel through training and coaching for a provider of refinancing and debt consolidation solutions. In this role, I tripled the size of the call center from 48 seats to 144. • Ranking consistently in the top 5% among over 80 sales representatives for a leading provider of HR solutions nationwide. My exposure to multiple industries demonstrates my versatility and willingness to take on challenges. I possess the skill set and business acumen to manage teams and drive performance. On a more personal note, I am undaunted by obstacles and passionate about winning.
