Business Consultant of the Year
Lisa Ruel has been awarded with “Business Consultant of the Year.” Ruel has been a business consultant for the company since 2007. Her ability to build and maintain relationships with professional retail partners has led her to achieve a massive 166 percent growth throughout the state of Louisiana in 2009.
“In our ever changing business climate our partners are looking for a true business consultant not just a sales representative -- someone that can assist them in growing their business both service and retail,” says Michele Fenske, National Sales Manager for Iredale Mineral Cosmetics. “Lisa has proven to do just that from her strategic business meetings with her partners to the level of education and training she provides each of their staff members. She has given the words ‘business consultant’ a whole new meaning as she changes the face of her market one pressed powder at a time,” adds Fenske.
Ruel resides in Covington, La., a suburb of New Orleans with her husband and three children. Prior to Ruel’s position at Iredale Mineral Cosmetics, she led cosmetic counter sales with Estee Lauder and later found her niche as a business consultant for prestigious brands such as Paul Mitchell, Aveda and Dermalogica. |
