Background

About Todd Dechant

More than doubled total sales within two years at each of the last two companies. I enjoy sales, as my strengths are applying market-based management principles and selling fact-based programs into new and current customers. I'm working on a great opportunity now that allows me to fully utilize my marketing, entrepreneurial, business development, and sales management skills in contributing to a company's profitability and long-term success. Playing a key role in developing and executing a company's strategic vision is this type of opportunity and challenge. Continually working towards understanding customers' changing needs helps me now and had resulted in many of my recent successes at Home Right, Inc (Black & Decker licensee) and Harper Hand Trucks (Ruffin Companies).
