  "Audra Jackson's sales skills are exceptional. Selling over the phone is not easy; cold calling via telephone is particularly challenging. Audra makes it seem easy. She is a pro (and I have been evaluating sales people in the course of running my own business for the past 38 years)."

• Sales Rep

  Webxites

  (Marketing and Advertising industry)

  2006 — 2007 (1 year)

  Pop Labs was formerly known as Webxites. I was hired in August of 2006 as an entry level sales rep and right away began exceeding quota and advancing more quickly than my peers. I was responsible for making 250+ cold calls per day and attempting to close deals in 1 to 2 phone calls. I eventually moved on to train new hires to execute on their daily goals and also influenced the changes that were made in the sales force structure as Webxites transformed into what Pop Labs is today.
