Company Overview: BLUM was founded in Austria in 1952 and is one of the leading manufacturers in the field of furniture accessories worldwide.
I am involved in all stages of sales and process management within the company. My customer portfolio includes dealers and industrial customers from the Aegean and Mediterranean regions, as well as large industrial customers placing direct orders from Austria.
I oversee all stages from the quotation phase, stock control, customer account control, order processing, invoicing, and shipping. Additionally, I provide support by establishing the necessary communication between the manufacturer and the customer to resolve any potential issues that may arise after sales.
Thanks to the detailed product training I have received, I can suggest alternative products to our customers when necessary. I have taken responsibility for the entire process from presenting quotations, processing orders, receiving orders from abroad to Turkey, and delivering them to the end user.
In 2018, our company transitioned from the Navision system to SAP, and I served as a Key User on the Sales side throughout this process. I conducted tests, provided training for the transition to live use, and trained my colleagues who would use the same system in the office.
For customers placing direct orders from Austria, I occasionally process annual planning orders. I constantly communicate with our headquarters in Austria to ensure these orders are produced and shipped at the right time on the requested dates.
The internal and external training we receive every year has greatly contributed to both my career and personal development.
