MOBILICITY

My typical work day started at 8:00 am with conference calls that lasted until 10:00 am.  I would be on the road at 10:00 am prospecting new locations, visiting stores creating promotions and marketing materials.  Presenting ways to increase sales, training staff, and negotiating deals with wholesalers for phones and accessories.  I would have daily contacts negotiating with advertising agencies e.g.. (radio, newspaper, TV, flyer and printing agencies).  On a regular basis, I would pickup merchandise from multiple locations across the GTA and deliver the merchandise to all 65 stores within a 3 day period.  Our weekdays typically ended between 9:00 pm - 10:00 pm while the weekends were spent analyzing or correcting store data or shifting our focus if needed.  This was followed by store visits presenting data to management while building stronger relationships.  I learned how to set up, run and grow a small business but more rewarding, take it to the next level.  Our management team was very hands off and co-workers kept to themselves, everyone encouraged you to run your district as your own company.  "Sink or swim" was their motto.  One of the most challenging part of my position was creating new promotional materials every weekend.  The most enjoyable part of the job was being congratulated each month for achieving targets and maintaining the #1 performing location in Canada.

A typical day at work involved a combination of marketing new products and services and administrative and operational duties.

As a sales associate at Mobilicity I was required to keep an accurate account of sales inventory; cash and revenue reports while advertising new phones, plans and short term promotional plans.

The ability to multitask, pay attention to detail and be resilient were the most important functions of the job. The Mobilicity location was an experimental booth located inside a metro at the edge of the coverage zone in Southdown, Mississauga. 

Locals who often visited the metro were outside the coverage zone which meant they would not be able to get service. This made the phone plans uninteresting to most and helped me develop resilience as my attitude towards selling was unwavering and always enthusiastic.

In addition, I was the only one untrained by Mobilicity. This did not however, stop me from selling the most phones out of a team of three individuals.

The most enjoyable part of the job was being able to work without supervision allowing me to apply different marketing strategies every day.

This is about a new product release along with a promotion offered to new customers. The team worked hard and sincerely to achieve the given targets and helped in over achieving the target. Managing everybody in order to distribute the workload is an important aspect and with right coordination among all helps to manage operation successfully. The hardest part was to make sure that things are getting done on time which becomes harder when everything is on a flow. The part we enjoyed the most was the response that we were getting and the end result and the success of the product released that was a new frequency based handset and the network plan. The feedbacks were great and the entire team enjoyed the experience.

At Carleton university on a sunny day in fall 2012 we had been sent to promote and sale company products and primarily to make customer awareness to join our company due to huge expansions. I learned great deal of customer experience and promotional methods that benefited business and client. I enjoyed meeting with prospective students joining university as it was was introduction week. The most enjoyable part of the whole event was learning and sharing with my co-workers this exceptionally amazing experience. I would love and be more prepared to do an event like such anytime.

a typical day would be for me to open the store and setup the kiosk. self market the brand by word of mouth. providing feedback and customer service as well as maintain steady monthly sales target goals.

wasnt much that was hard at the job other then promoting sales

but the enjoyable part of the job was the day to day duties and meeting people. the job was primarily just me there and it felt like i was a manager. after hiring more employees i ended up being supervisor or team lead for that stores location

As a senior, its still always a new challenge weather its assisting existing customers or activating a new customer on the Mobilicity network. I have met sales targets every month and kept all inventory stocked up to company standards. open and close store as required. reports and emails all done in a timely manner which made myself very strong in this role. I really enjoyed working here.

I gained a lot of experience working at Mobilicity. I learned how cellphones work, proper etiquette when dealing with customers, and even how the industry worked. I was also able to learn how to troubleshoot and repair cellphones to an extent. The experience gave me different flexible methods to implement in my own life.

New challenges everyday. Always had opportunity to meet new people from different backgrounds. It helped to grow my interpersonal and communication skill. There was a pool of young co-workers where most of them are of same age group; so the bonhomie and the comfortable level of working with each other was pretty good.

Working there made me learn a lot....
I got the customer service experiance  as I had to understand customer needs and provide them with the appropriately solution.
The biggest asset was my fluency in 5 languages...(English,punjabi,hindi,urdu and farsior dari) it helped the business attract people from those cultures.
Over all it was very exciting experience.

Independence in ownership with a lot of room for growth and development, fast paced sales environment with a lot of different ways to make money with additional services such as hardware sales, unlocking, device repair , and other aftermarket services. Sales on device plans and cellphone services were very competitive in the Canadian market.
