"If given the opportunity to grow existing accounts at Tyson Foods, I would begin by combing through your CRM and uncovering which companies purchase only a couple of your meat products. I would discover which ones they have not yet been introduced to, and then determine if the addition of this product could make sense for their business. It would be important that, before approaching the account, that I had a full understanding of how their business operates. I would also be sure to approach the account with full enthusiasm and robust product knowledge."

"Although my sales experience is limited, I have a great instinct when it comes to recommending products and determining need. If given an existing account to grow, I would check in and build a relationship based on the Tyson Foods products that they already purchase and enjoy. From that point, I could make more educated recommendations. I would be prepared with numbers so that I could show margins and other important factors that clients would need to make a decision."
