“As VP of Sales at the Sports Club/LA and Reebok Sports Club/NY, Mary assembled and lead one of the most talented sales teams in the industry. Through her leadership we were able to consistently deliver outstanding results, growing both membership revenues and dues revenue per member. 

 

Mary was critical to our efforts to bring our sales processes into the 21st century by implementing a robust data driven approach to membership sales utilizing Salesforce as our sales management and CRM platform.
