Kathleen Milbier’s Experience

Preferred Accounts Executive

AddVenture Products

(Privately Held; Marketing and Advertising industry)

2006 — Present (3 years )

The Preferred Partner Program was initially started to increase companies’ revenue with Addventure Products and give companies a dependable single point of contact when working with us.

As a Preferred Account Executive my job is to not only grow the top line but also improve the margin of the bottom line in my portfolio. In my opinion, this cannot be accomplished without making the relationships with my clients the top priority.

My objective is to differentiate myself through value based on a trusted relationship. Not to become a commodity.
