Background

About Mark Carlson

My extensive experience as a sales professional is marked by expertise in market share growth, account management, and customer relationship management. I specialize in analyzing market trends, orchestrating effective product promotions, and managing business operations. This expertise is bolstered by my ability to establish new accounts in competitive territories and foster long-term partnerships with stakeholders ranging from front line operators to C-suite executives. Throughout my career, I have achieved several noteworthy accomplishments, including pioneering a successful entry into the forestry industry at DS Smith, which generated $3 million in sales within a year. I was recognized with O'Neal Steel's "Summer of Shine" award, achieved a remarkable 140% revenue growth in a year, and founded a successful steel sales and precision shearing company, Kenmar Metals, which I grew from inception to over 160 active customers before negotiating its profitable sale. I am also proud of my long-standing commitment to serving the community through volunteer work with the Special Olympics and my involvement with the Lions Club. I am committed to leveraging my sales expertise and relationship-building skills to facilitate organizational growth and innovation. My ambition is to continue creating shared value and delivering exceptional results by collaborating with forward-thinking teams and businesses.
