Johan HorakÃ�’¢Ãƒ’¯Â’¿Â’½Ãƒ’¯Â’¿Â’½s expertise is in social media and so when he came along to mentor me, the focus was on social media. You only need to look at our website/blog and facebook profile to see the improvement. In fact for about 18 months we had been trying unsuccessfully to merge our website with our blog, but Johan quickly achieved that for us. It is too soon to quantify the results other than to say that we have received positive feedback about our website and we have a growing facebook following. Sincerely Steve Bolnick" Sally "To date it has been the single most effective intervention in our businesses that has made a remarkable improvement. Without the assistance of my mentor Johan Horak I will not have been able to implement a comprehensive marketing strategy.To date the mentorship programme has effectively assisted AWOL Tours in: - Short & Long term Marketing strategy - Effective social networking structure such as on Facebook and twitter - Developed AWOL Tours on-line Magazine - Keyword optimization for Google - Implementing effective staff job descriptions - Financial Goal setting and objectives - Sales strategy - Support and advice on logistical issues Kind regards Sally Peterse The quality and depth of your experience is of unequal standard.

David A. Duroure 12113 San Chaliford Ct. Tampa, FL 33626 727-517-6082 dduroure@hotmail.com CEO / Sales & Marketing / Business Development... P&L / Account Management / Negotiations / Strategic Partnerships / CRM High Net Worth Clients / B2B / B2C / Regulatory Compliance / Asset Management Portfolio Analysis / Recruiting & Training An award-winning sales executive, Mr. Duroure has a record of developing and implementing innovative sales and marketing strategies, driving revenue growth and exceeding profit goals for industry leaders Shearson Lehman Brothers/American Express, Merrill Lynch, and Paine Webber. Much of his success is due to his proficiency at anticipating and capitalizing on market trends for new and existing products. A hands-on manager with highly developed negotiation skills, Mr. Duroure is experienced at cultivating profitable, strategic business partnerships. He is a persuasive communicator and creative problem solver with the ability to resolve conflict. By recruiting and building strong professional sales teams, he has grown profits for multiple products in multiple markets. A sought-after executive, Mr. Duroure was recruited by Destin Bank to overhaul the Asset Management and Trust services. At the time, the bank had only 13 clients with in-house assets of just $3 million. Mr. Duroure improved the product branding and expanded services. Additionally, he formulated a strategic alliance and utilized his securities license to provide complete Asset Management and Trust services for the Bank’s customers and the surrounding market. He grew the client base from 13 to 400 accounts and assets from $3 million to $30 million. Prior to going to Destin Bank, Mr. Duroure enjoyed a successful tenure marked by turnarounds and growth at Paine Webber. He rolled out a new Paine Webber product, tripling results of any previous rollout. The Southern Division was suffering from poor sales when Mr. Duroure introduced the Paine Webber Global Income Fund. He trained key producers on a global approach to resolving the income needs of targeted retirees. He also created a hot line to quickly respond to questions and crafted a sales promotion. As a result of his strategies, he turned around the Southern Division, achieving the number one ranking in the nation and garnering $500 million in sales. In addition to his successful rollout, he turned around a poorly performing Paine Webber branch. The Fort Myers, Florida branch had low market share.

He then led the expansion of the Memphis branch, growing revenues to $26 million, net profit to $5 million and asset levels to over $1 billion. Mr. Duroure recognized a market opportunity with the growth of a new market east of Memphis. He devised a strategy to relocate his branch and sold the concept to his Division Manager. He chose the new location and led its build-out and staffed the branch by recruiting 14 significant producers. The expansion increased production by $10 million.

Mr. Duroure launched a new product line, tripling profit and becoming the number one Paine Webber branch office in the nation. He capitalized on an opportunity to leverage existing customer asset revenue by integrating sophisticated wealth preservation planning and trust services. To accomplish his plan, he formed a strategic partnership with Comerica Trust. Mr. Duroure addressed logistic, compliance and branch expansion issues by designing a revolutionary branch format, creating the first "Private Client Group". Within one year, PaineWebber went national with program. Mr. Duroure was inducted into the Who's Who in Sales & Marketing for Division Sales Leadership and Production in 1987.
