I'm clicking off my bucket list destinations at a steady pace, which might explain why I'm basically almost broke! haha But next would be south american countries like: Brazil, Argentina, Peru, Chile, etc.

 

Happy Holidays everyone! Robot Very Happy

Hey All!

2021-06-17_10-17-18.jpg

 

I’m Brad. But thanks to COVID, and too much isolation internet boredom time, you can now call me Lord Brad!

 

I think I’ll even put it on my passport to try and score free upgrades!

 

After 18 + total years with TELUS, you might call me a Happy Lifer.

 

 

 

A quick roadmap:

TELUS Outbound Telemarketing calling out exiting customers to ensure they have the best TELUS has to offer

 

FFH CR1, acting manager twice, taking inbound calls, satisfying our customers and setting some sales records along the way

 

FFH Quality Coach- taking part in the first Quality Coaching Program, collaborating with reps and managers to ensure our customers were getting top TELUS service on every call

 

RP&O Real Time Team FFH and Mobility: making real time adjustments, queue management, enabling teams to have better access to ad hoc time and projecting the optimal service levels

 

MOB Loyalty: Ensuring out loyal customers feel special and taken care of

 

MOB CRMT- Using negotiation and interpersonal skills to resolve disputes for customers and ensuring resolution is achieved on behalf of the customer and the company.  Also handling primeships in the meantime with SOS and social media  

 

 I enjoy using my interpersonal skills to serve our customers, as well as fellow employees

 

A Few Quick Facts!

 

Where are you from?

Born in Calgary, raised in small town Creston BC where Kokanee is made and Sasquatches roam free, then all but 2 years Calgary ever since. Those 2 years were in Toronto; which was a valuable crash course in learning to be self sufficient and independent

 

Which phone model are you rocking?

Galaxy S12 Ultra

Hands down the best camera I have ever had on a phone!

 

Favorite sport?

Hockey, Football, Aussie Rules Football

 

Bucket list travel destination?

Travel is my Passion! Back To Australia, do an encore of bridge climbing in Sydney, see a Aussie Rules game in Melbourne and then a return dive to the Great Barrier Reef.

After that, then we can look to check off Paris, London, Bali, and Egypt to see the pyramids

 

When I’m not working (and allowed to) I Enjoy

Group events with friends! Karaoke (I do a Mean Green Day and Metallica), wing nights, sporting events, movies

 

Hobbies

I love Social Media Marketing, having run campaigns for myself and friends with businesses. I love trying to keep up with the non-stop changes

Also enjoy Fishing, and, I don’t know, is chilling at home keeping the cat company a hobby?

 

Guilty Addiction

Sushi!  I could seriously eat it every day if they let me. And I’m talking the real stuff... the rawer the fish the better!

 

 

Highlight Moments

 

I was the first contestant (and winner!) from Canada on the 80’s Talent Show “Puttin on the Hits”. Got me famous for awhile, autographs, everything! …

Don’t believe me?  check it out here .. https://youtu.be/vsdvvhxLzoU

 

I Ran for Calgary City Council in 2017. Didn’t win, but did get 3rd (less than 100 votes behind 2nd) and 11% of the vote entirely on a Social Media Campaign and a $100 Budget
