business.... – Hershey supervisor

Debbie is a former district manager of one of Hershey Chocolate USA's largest districts and a President’s Cup award winner at that Fortune 500 company. Her instinctive and inherent talent for sales is topped only by her ability to teach others the secrets of her success. A rarity in the world of sales, Debbie is equally capable of closing a deal as she is mentoring a team member or mediating a sensitive employee situation or critical sales contract.

In addition to her sales, management, mediation, and mentoring abilities, Debbie has won accolades for her marketing talents. This included her strategy and execution of a NASCAR regional marketing program, which led to substantial increases in all major Hershey accounts.

After 11 years in the corporate world, Debbie has spent the last 12 running her own unique and successful online business — DistinctCards.com — which has garnered a top 10-category rank by Google over a 5-year period, as rated by quality of site and number “hits.”

The Avadon Group is pleased to have Debbie join the team as VP of Sales, and as a key facilitator in our client and community programs. Her unique and diverse skill set, and her understanding of key business principles, will make her a much-valued addition to Avadon, and a substantial benefit to our clients and students alike.
