job
Business Development Manager - Based in Hong Kong
ClicTime Holdings LTD.
In September 2016 I relocated to our office in Hong Kong in order to work with the current Hong Kong team in order to understand the Asian business and assist in expanding our product range into new markets, particularly China. During this time I worked closely with our Hong Kong sales team and the product development team in order to understand the Asia market and understand how we can adapt to different retail strategies and requirements. During my time as Business Development Manager in Hong Kong we expanded into 4 new target territories, with sales success and growth within the first 9 months.

job
Sales Executive
ClicTime Holdings LTD.
After being promoted from Sales & Account Manager to Sales Executive, I applied the knowledge that I gained during my time working with retailers in the UK market and also began to apply that to markets outside of the UK, primarily Europe & North America. During this time I a travelled between Europe & North America attending trade shows and licensing events in order to expand our distributor base. As the business expanded, I focused my efforts towards creating a strong distribution model in each territory rather than focusing on DTR sales. This allowed us to focus on finding one or two suitable partners to handle direct sales in each territory, meaning that more individual customers and online retailers could be reached.

job
Sales & Account Manager
ClicTime Holdings LTD.
After transitioning from a Marketing position to a Sales role, I began to focus more on the B2B side of the business, within the UK market, and began to work directly with retailers, and distributors to grow the business and expand our selling range. This included finding new customers whilst maintaining a good working relationship with current clients. During this time I still worked closely with our Marketing and Design department to deliver marketing material and content directly to our clients in order to maintain the high standard of creative output representing our brand and products. At this time I also was involved in the organisation and execution of all trade shows within the UK and Europe, which I also attended, with the aim to bring in new business for the UK market.

Marketing Executive
ClicTime Holdings LTD.
After being promoted from Marketing Assistant to Marketing Executive at ClicTime Holdings, my role expanded from predominantly social media work to include a variety of retail customers & distributors of our products. As well as continuing with my social media and customer service role I also expanded to liaise directly with international retailers & distributors on marketing campaigns specific to our brand and licensed products.

During this time I also began directly liaising with our in house design team and sales team to assist with the organisation of trade shows.
