Achieved 1 million in sales 13 of 15 years selling HVAC

I was in the top 3 of 12 sales rep all 13 years with Standard Heating. Also having the highest average sales ticket all 13 years. I achieved this without losing business.  I was the leader in Heat pump sales in 2007, 2008 and on when heat pumps were brand new to the area forcing my competition in the 7 county area to try and sell against me and educate themselves/work harder. It didn't work.  I earned the name heat pump queen.  I sold 150 units in one year, which was unheard of,  

My average ticket was between 500-1500 higher than the other 11 reps, increasing company profitability and higher commissions
