AMP Careers.

How long have you been with AMP?

I’ve been with AMP for a little over two years. I started in August 2023, so just over two years now.

What drew you to AMP?

My mom has worked here since 2008 and has always spoken highly of the company and the people. When I was looking for a new job, it sounded like a role I’d genuinely enjoy and it turned out to be exactly that.

What do you find most rewarding about working at AMP?

I love helping small businesses and watching them grow over time. Seeing their listings improve from lower rankings to the top is incredibly rewarding. It brings me a lot of joy to help business owners share what they love to do.

What key skills have you developed since being at AMP?

My time management has improved a lot, and I’ve become much more detail-oriented. Small details like business descriptions or incorrect hours can really impact a business’s online visibility. I notice those things much quicker now, even in my day-to-day life.

How do you stay motivated and continue to grow in your role?

It always comes back to helping small businesses. I was a dog groomer before this role and still do it on the side, so I understand the small business owner perspective. That connection motivates me and drives my desire to help others succeed.

Have any mentors influenced you along the way?

Mary Smith, Chelsea Jolly, and Jonna Hiltunen have all been incredibly helpful. Jonna trained me when I first started, and they’ve all shared the same advice: mistakes will happen. What matters is how you learn from them and move forward.

What current goals are you working toward?

My main goal is to continue helping people. I love my role and being able to support both the sales team and small business owners by identifying opportunities and making meaningful updates that help businesses succeed.

Where do you see yourself at AMP in the future?

I try to learn something new every day by asking questions and staying curious. Our team does a little bit of everything, and I’m excited to continue growing in my role and taking on new ways to support business owners.

What advice would you give someone starting in a similar role?

You’re going to make mistakes, and that’s okay. Everyone does. What matters is how you learn from them, grow from them, and adjust your perspective to keep improving.

What originally drew you to AMP?

I was raised to support local businesses, so the opportunity to help small businesses in my own community really stood out. When I connected with the team, it just felt like a natural fit. I love being able to help business owners grow, increase their visibility, and take some of the marketing workload off their plate so they can focus on running their business.

You had a strong start, including 11 GSVs in your first month. What helped you connect with business owners so quickly?

A big part of it was seeing success early and building momentum from there. I focus on being local, relatable, and genuinely helpful. It’s about showing business owners how we can highlight what they’ve built whether that’s through visibility, updated content, or tools like virtual tours. I try to meet them where they are and give them something they can actually use to grow.

You were recently recognized as Top Rookie and received the Distinguished Sales Award for 2025. Congratulations! What contributed most to that success?

It really comes down to persistence and consistency. I focus on getting in front of as many businesses as possible, asking the right questions, and listening. Being local helps build trust, and I always lead with how we can help. It’s not about selling everything, it’s about finding what fits their needs and building relationships over time.

Jamie Heymann has been a huge support for me. She’s always available, positive, and gives great guidance. Knowing I can reach out to her anytime has made a big difference in my growth and confidence.

My family, without a doubt. I’ve got three kids, and everything I do is about making sure they’re taken care of and have a great life. That’s what drives me to stay consistent and keep pushing.

How do you define success at this stage of your career?

Success is hitting my goals, staying consistent, and doing a good job for my customers. It’s also about being someone others can rely on whether that’s helping businesses grow or supporting teammates along the way.

What has been the most rewarding part of your role?

Seeing my customers succeed is the most rewarding. When they win, I win. One of my customers reached out after getting a lead through their website for the first time, and that was a huge moment. I also find it rewarding to see my own growth both in my skills and financially through the work I’ve put in.

You’ve had strong performance and earned major recognition this past year. What contributed most to your success?

It changes day to day. Sometimes it’s hitting big revenue goals, and other times it’s simply staying on top of everything and setting myself up for future success. I focus on progress and consistency rather than just big wins.

I pushed myself out of my comfort zone and was willing to talk to everyone, from insurance agents to small business owners. Giving myself grace while staying persistent helped me get early wins and build confidence.

Starting just before COVID was challenging, but it reinforced the value of our services. As a leader, it’s tough when reps struggle, but seeing them grow and succeed, like Daisy Henderson, is incredibly motivating.

Developing reps, launching new markets, and striving for awards like the Presidential Achievement Award motivate me. Seeing reps achieve milestones on their own is especially rewarding.

I aim to establish two assistant district managers, grow our market to a million-dollar level, and eventually become a senior district manager.
