Connecting with People and Winning at the Sales Game with Amanda Kilmer 

Date

The crew was happy to get into the Dumpster with Amanda Kilmer at York Hoist. Amanda shared her love and passion for people, winning at the sales game. She grew up in the business with a love for the waste and recycling industry so she felt right at home talking the sorting and processing of steel, aluminum and copper with the guys. Amanda discussed the sales industry, working in a small family business vs a more corporate setting and the need to have butterflies in her stomach to know she would keep growing. We are so grateful to have such mentorship on display on this Dumpster Talk episode!
