I am Joshua Ogbu, a professional sales development representative, territory manager, and account manager with 10+ years of experience in sales, customer experience CX, customer relationship management CRM, direct sales, B2B sales and marketing, B2C sales and marketing, real estate sales and marketing, business development, sales development, lead qualification, appointment settings, cold calling, lead nurturing, persuasion, negotiation, sales conversion, and customer acquisition.
I have worked for several clients across various industries like finance, real estate, insurance, health, etc as a contract and full-time freelance and onsite SDR, territory manager and account manager.
My passion for sales and business development has geared me into surpassing monthly sales quotas, while also building strong client and customer relationships between the companies I've worked for and their customers/clients.
Using standard sales development strategies, I acquire customers through effective communication, engaging them in the most professional, yet friendly way possible, understanding their pain points and offering solid solutions to their problems, which in turn leads to sales conversion and acquiring loyal customers.
I currently lead the sales team and manage the south east region of Bastion Health Limited , a leading Health Insurance company in Nigeria providing health insurance for Individual, SMES(FMCG) , and Corporates . We also provide digital health solutions that help HRs manage employ medical records.
Before joining the Health Insurance space, I started my career in Diamond Bank Plc (Now Access Bank Plc) as a relationship manager with major focus to SMEs in the FMCG space, providing account relationship management and financial advisory services.
My persuasive and negotiating ability have given me a platform to show my sales and marketing prowess when making cold calls to prospects, and these abilities have changed the perspective of cold leads.
With me on your sales team, I can increase revenue and also lead and train your SDRs to achieve success.
Best regards,
Joshua Ogbu.
