- Collaborate across the organization to problem-solve, improve brand retention, and provide seamless support during the transition phase.
- Provide updates and training to Brand Partners on new features, system updates, and best practices within the Brand Central Portal.
- Support partnership marketing initiatives and maintain strategies that enhance brand success and visibility.
- Guide brands through change management, helping them leverage new tools and processes to their full potential.

- Experience with up-selling and cross-selling, identifying new opportunities to drive client value.
- Proven experience in outbound calling and sales prospecting.
