Tiffany Gray

President, WiCYS Phoenix Chapter

I'm an experienced, ambitious and successful sales professional who focuses on understanding client needs and aligning them to the appropriate solution necessary. Over the course of my career, I've been blessed to work in a client consultation role for a high-functioning sales organization across many different industries. This experience has helped me craft an approach to sales that puts the client at the center of everything that I do. Regardless, of what is being sold, I recognize that the sales process is a consultative one. Clients respond best when they are being listened to and not being sold something that they don't need. I have gained a tremendous amount of experience by developing a sales philosophy that values listening with intent and asking the right questions to understand the clients challenges. Both current and past clients describe me as : efficient, authentic, warm-hearted, caring and professional. My mindset is to ensure that my clients walk away happy, but it also provides me with a sense of fulfillment knowing that my work has provided them with the right tools to solve their problem. As an Enterprise level sales consultant, I now look forward to being able to share my expertise, tireless work ethic and positive approach with your organization. I bring a wealth of Enterprise Sales experience and I'm passionate about helping organizations grow revenues by engaging their clients and utilizing industry best practices.
