Moina Kitney Sales
Moina Kitney Sales Moina Kitney Sales
“I have sold all my career. What has made me effective is that I
have practical in-depth knowledge of the entire workflow of the
industry, from start to finish.
This includes fabric development and design, market research,
business planning, product development, negotiating and
finalizing production requirements, production and quality
management, delivery logistics, sales management and customer
relations with Tier 1 customers.
This makes for having a very different conversation with buyers
than they are used to with other account representatives,
because I know fabric, the production process, the supply chain,
their business and their market.
I can be an informal advisor as they struggle with the business
decisions that have to be made, and they can rely on this strong
relationship in an ongoing way - not just be their seasonal sales
contact.
This boosts sales, provides critical customer feedback to the
company I represent, and keeps competition to a minimum.”

In the following slides I have:
• Shown you my sales strategy (known buyers and unknown) • Shown you concrete examples of sale achievement/wins.
With:
1. Multi Industries – successfully developed product to additional merchandise. (add’tnl estimate $1-2M) My knowledge of Product manufacturing was crucial.
2. The Hudson Bay- consistently met internal $ Targets of
$8M quarterly My Global sourcing skills were essential.
3. Cara Donna Inc.- broke into catalogue company category.
(buyer of $1M annually) My knowledge of Vendor base was critical.
4. Czigler Imports- successfully introduced new ‘summer knits’. (new product immediate impact of + $2M annually)

3. Product Mix:
• Report findings to Product Development

• Supply chain-country of origin etc.
• Marketing-Plannograms, look-books,
samples etc.

connections

referrals to prospective buyers – through network and
social media
