Okay, final draft of my "resume" is done, I think.

I put resume in quotes because this is not a traditional resume, as it has the pitch talking points in the second half. I'm actually really happy with how it came out, almost makes me seem successful. (but it's ALL true)

If any of you mofo's want to paste it over there in my thread it's fine by me, some of the boneheads still seem really confused as to what my pitch is lol

ps it all fits on one page, and I used bullet points not *.

Doug Barton
"Versatility, Experience, Creativity"

*6 years Sales & Marketing with Sysco Foods, a fortune 500 food distributor with over $58 billion in sales. Specialties were account penetration and territory development. I grew my account base from 15 to 40 in less than two years while attaining top sales of $600,000+ per year.

*9 years Management with Duffy's Restaurant in Orlando, FL. Hired on as an assistant manager fresh out of college I quickly put my business/marketing degree (UCF 1991) to work by utilizing creative ways to increase the college and neighborhood traffic. After I worked my way to the General Manager I continued to increase sales and refine the Duffy's brand. In the last 3 years I increased the monthly sales from $38,000 to $63,000 per month.

*15 years as Owner/Operator of Barton Family Motors, originally based out of Orlando, and now enjoying our 7th year in GA. This was where I was able to utilize my entire skill set, eventually creating a unique by appointment model and online sales experience, with a service level second to none and near 24 hour text access (among other accomplishments, such as being in a financial position to own our property and being totally debt free personally). Over the years I've purchased and sold 2200+ vehicles, mostly as a 1-man operation wearing numerous hats.

*30 years of Dedication; with only 3 entities over 30 years I've demonstrated a commitment to the endeavor and career I choose, and I'm ready for the next challenge.

Jim, can my passion for this industry help VIP as you grow?
As you work hard to bring in more vehicles I can...

*Take the unique qualities VIP offers and Pound the Pavement and Phone; I'll use my sales and marketing expertise to help you service your current customer base while bringing in new dealers to keep up with increased supply, in a Dealer Relations/Concierge type role,

*Use my customer service and street sales experience to keep a constant weekly presence with current and prospective dealers, my goal is to sign up 2-3 NEW dealers every time I hit the road,

*Create and implement new marketing ideas such as mailers, email and text marketing, YouTube experiences, and refining the dealers' online experience with ideas like live links to Carfax and Autocheck,

*Help with auction day activities and post sale follow up, and act as a fill in for any lot/admin needs you may have,

*Implement creative programs to offer sales opportunities outside of Wednesday, like presale sales, post sale second chance opportunities, private sales, and explore opportunities with green-light type sales and monetizing post sale inspections,

*Think outside the box to create inventory that will make YOU more money, like a Carmax model where you can buy cars directly from the consumer and sell them at YOUR auction while pocketing the full profit instead of just fees,

Below is just one example of me birthing the "YouTube experience" marketing idea and implementing it. I would create a file with what type of inventory every dealer in VIP's database is looking for, then find 4 or 5 vehicles to do a feature video on. At that time I would send the video via text or email to every dealer in VIP's database. To see my demo this link www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-l2tHhtF5Y" or search "MyVIPAuctions.com demo tape by the chapel"

Jim, as I fly in to my early 50's I hope VIP auctions will be the next (and last) step in my professional career,

Doug Barton

Thank you sir! One page is hard when you've been in the work field for 30+ years and are making a pitch. I'm pleased with what I was able to do, did I mention that?
