Kym Frese

I've been in the promotional products industry for about 6 years now as a Regional Account Executive, working for a personal care line doing inside sales. My day-to-day involves working with different distributors and their accounts, growing their business, offering them our products and more importantly teaching them ways to sell our products. I also attend large trade shows to connect with distributors. Before this role, I worked in sales in the beauty industry, selling beauty products to cosmetologists. I also ran cosmetology schools as a director, which was kind of sales in a way because it was my responsibility to not only help bring the students in but to ensure they had all of the tools for success. I also ran all of the day-to-day operations. My most notable professional achievement is probably being a director of cosmetology schools, because I did not get a typical college degree required for the role but I worked very hard and was very determined therefore I had a lot of success in that role. I've grown myself in every role with hard work and determination.
