About Thoba

I’m an experienced, resourceful and effective Sales Manager who is currently managing a Hybrid Sales team looking after a team that consists of 10 Sales People (7 Account Managers and 3 Sales Reps). I boast a proven track record in leading effectively and meeting my KPI’s, boasting a number of resourceful skills and a rich marketing, sales and customer service background. I’m a resourceful Leader adept to implementing sales programs within the sales and marketing field in order to achieve targets and KPI’s. I’m creative at integrating strategies to develop new and existing customers, sales, brand and getting the buy in of customers/clients on new products also known as our NPD’s. I’m a strong and persuasive individual with good interpersonal, people, and exceptional negotiation skills. Planning plays an integral part in achieving success in what I do and thus my planning skills are exceptional as they are the base work of what I do. I’m an innovative professional constantly coming up with new ideas to best execute the business strategy in order to achieve our KPI’s consistently. I am goal orientated and focused; executing business strategy is what drives me as the end result is always the measure of my input in my specific role. I thrive under pressure and uphold qualities like accountability and responsibility very highly. The diverse nature of the Team I manage has enabled me to improve my leadership skills as the one size fits all style of managing is not always the case with dealing with a diverse group. The exposure from interacting will different customer profiles has equipped me with the know how to handle different customers’ needs at their different levels. As a manager of a hybrid team my market comprises of a variety of channels: L&T; (which is predominately our main market e.g. (Spaza Shops, General dealers, Supermarkets), Grocery; this is basically all your grocery stores (Shoprite, Spar, Pick n Pay, Boxer, USave and Choppies), On Premise; e.g.(KFC, Nandos, Debonnairs, Fish aways, Spur, Galitos, ect), PFM; e.g. (Sasol, Total, Engen, Caltex fresh stop) and Liquor e.g (Pircadi Rebel, Liquor city ect) and this exposure has enabled be to be a better Manager through understanding the importance of executing every channel according to maximize Sales and fight competitors for market share.
