SUMMARY
Thomas Wayne Eichen
I am a self-motivated salesman. I believe sales to be a mediator position working for the good of the company and customer at the same time. My goal as a top salesperson is to build lasting relationships with customers who trust me, and the company I work for, so that all will benefit. I take pride in being able to offer my experience as a business owner and salesman. I am looking for a position in a company such as yours, which has the product and sales support which will allow me to excel, bringing high profits to myself, and my employer.
WORK HISTORY
Specialized Costa Mesa 2017-2018
I was the Service technician, servicing all bikes, repairing shocks, forks, wheels, and basic service of the bicycle.
Beeline Bike Repair 2016-2017
As General manager, operator of a repair van, marketing and sales. I had a full job. I was in charge of a total of three vans in Orange County.
Team Bike Works 2013-2016
As I perform the task of Sales and Service of bicycles and bicycle accessories I strived for excellence in customer satisfaction.
Cal Pacific Export Packers 2007-2009
I acted in a supervisory position overlooking the logistics of incoming and outgoing of hotel furniture. This position was working for a friend and I knew going in that it would only last as long as we had the project. Unfortunately the project ended and I am left looking for a job again.
SSR Motorsports 2006-2007
The job was sales when I started and grew into a vast array of customer service, making a flyer once a month, getting all needed info for upcoming
conventions, dealt with shipping and trained new employees. This job was much more than sales and I did not see the silver lining coming around the corner. The only reason I left was they were unwilling to pay me for the extra noncommissioned effort.
Patriot Motorcycles Corporation 2005-2006
I was the Western Regional Sales Manager for Patriot Motorcycles Corporation. My responsibilities included locating potential new dealers and facilitating their entry into the Patriot family. I serviced the current dealers and I was responsible for on and off site dealer education. I also used my excellent customer service skills to handle warranty issues.
On the marketing end, I also enjoy planning our presentation at consumer and trade shows. I help dealers with advertising ideas and I have assisted
relocating dealers to a better location.
My time at Patriot has been an educational as well as profitable time. I have relished the entrepreneurial spirit at Patriot. I am always ready to seek similarly profitable ventures with an established company who is ready to utilize my vision.
Tank Sports Inc. 2003-2005
My responsibilities included generating sales and marketing ideas for a young start up company. I developed new customers and helped those customers utilize our new product to facilitate their company growth. Tank Sports started as a bicycle importer, moving into bicycle manufacture and currently transitioning into a motorcycle importer and manufacturer. I became involved in many aspects of product certification, familiarity of various state laws regarding the motorized products, trade show presentation and even shipping. Although I see potential in a start up company, the infrastructure of a small business did not make it possible for me to achieve my high sales goals.
Owner: Downey Cyclery 1996-2003
As owner of this small bicycle shop, I took pride in servicing my loyal customers. As this was a small shop with few employees, I did everything from
mechanics, sales, ordering and display to maintenance and cleaning the bathroom. Unfortunately, this enterprise was more work than income.
Mr. Mom 1994-1996
Basic home care and child care of a newborn baby. My wife returned to her long-time, well paying job and I assumed the duties of raising a baby. I am a
proud husband of 28 years and dad for 15. Commitment is my middle name.
Express Auto Dismantling 1990-1994
The sale of used auto parts, I managed employees, developed an automotive dealer base and assisted in starting a new computer program for inventorying and cross-referencing parts.
EDUCATION
High School Graduate with supplementary business courses from Mt. San Antonio College and Rio Hondo College. I have also completed a Dale
Carnegie Sales Management course.
