CORPORATE

Sheyla Zagal, Digital Inside Sales Operations Specialist

What initially drew you to AMP?

Fresh out of DePaul with a Digital Marketing degree, I expected to focus on marketing. However, my recruiter Alex Hogan’s enthusiasm and promise of growth opportunities, along with AMP’s great culture, convinced me to join. I thought I’d be doing website design, but I found myself in roles I never expected, like operations and account management, and I’ve loved the challenge and people I’ve worked with.

What do you find the most rewarding about working at AMP?

The most rewarding part of my role is helping small business owners and knowing my work makes a difference. It’s fulfilling to see the impact of what I do, especially when I explain a process to account managers and see that “light bulb” moment.

What are some of the key skills that you’ve picked up over the years?

I’ve learned the importance of teamwork, collaboration, and using my voice. Early on, I was shy about voicing opinions, but AMP encouraged me to speak up and be confident. Another key skill is delegation. Knowing when to ask for help has been vital to my success.

What keeps you motivated?

My family keeps me grounded. Whenever I feel unmotivated, I call my parents for support. It’s also important to remember that every day is a new opportunity to improve, even if yesterday was tough.

What’s the best piece of like career advice you’ve recieved?

Ashley Fawkes recommended Nice Girls Don’t Get the Corner Office, which taught me to assert myself and push boundaries. Tiffany Mills emphasized work-life balance, reminding me that it’s okay to take time off and enjoy life outside of work.

Is there something you would have done differently in your career?

I’d have more confidence early on. Self-doubt held me back, but I’ve learned to trust my abilities and recognize that AMP’s supportive culture ensures no one fails alone.

What’s one piece of wisdom or insight that you’d like to leave with us?

I have three pieces of advice:

  1. Advocate for yourself and communicate your goals.
  2. Speak up when you need help.
  3. Don’t strive for perfection; focus on getting better each day.

OUTSIDE SALES

Izaak Marciniak, Digital Mentorship Manager for Southwest Michigan

How long have you been with AMP?

I started at the beginning of February, so it’s been about six months.

What drew you to AMP? Was there anything specific that caught your eye about the opportunity?

After working in IT and engineering sales where I felt like I wasn’t making a real impact, Senior Hiring Manager Katie Szudarski introduced me to AMP. I was attracted by the chance to truly help locally owned businesses and bring them value.

What are some of your favorite things about our products?

I love how affordable and effective our offerings are, especially for small businesses. Even our top-tier Platinum OPTIMA™ package provides great ROI within a year. The sales process is straightforward and efficient—many GSV sales happen in just a few minutes, making it easy for business owners to say yes.

Given your experiences here with AMP so far, what are some of the key skills you’ve picked up?

Persistence is critical. We talk to 30 business owners a day, and most say no. You have to brush off rejection and move on. Maintaining positivity is just as important—being upbeat during conversations creates a better experience for everyone.

How do you keep yourself motivated and continue to grow in the role that you’re in?

The more you work, the more you get paid, which is a huge motivator. Switching to commission-only has pushed me to set higher standards for myself and reach new benchmarks.

What’s been like a significant setback you’ve had to face? How did you overcome that or handle that in the situation?

I’ve had tough months where sales were slow. It’s like a roller coaster, but during the lows, I stick to AMP’s blueprint—keep making calls, and don’t quit. Persistence always pays off.

When you do find yourself in like a setback, what’s the best piece of career advice you’ve gotten to help push you out of that?

District Manager Kayli Maucione taught me to find the wins each day, even if I don’t make a sale. Every no gets me closer to a yes by clearing prospects off my list and making room for fresh opportunities.

What are some of the current goals that you are working towards?

I’m close to reaching my 75 DNA bonus, and I think the bonus structure is set up perfectly to motivate us. It’s quite achievable to hit at least one bonus per month. Once you hit a bonus, you set your sights on the next one, keeping those bonuses as targets to strive for.

Where do you see yourself at AMP in the next 5 years or so? How are you preparing for that right now?

I aim to become a District Manager. Right now, as a Mentorship Manager, I love training new reps and helping them stay confident through tough times. I’m excited to build my own team in the future.

Reflecting on your career so far, is there anything that you may have done differently?

I’d manage the tough months better by staying mentally strong. Those dips can make you doubt your abilities, but it’s all part of the process.

Final question, what is one piece of wisdom or insight that you would like to leave with us?

Positivity and confidence are contagious. Walking into a business with a smile and confidence in our products makes a big difference. Believing in what we offer is key to helping business owners and closing sales.

INSIDE SALES

Courtney Lee, Senior Account Manager and Digital Inside Sales Classroom Trainer

How long have you been at AMP?

I joined AMP right after graduating from Carthage College in 2021, during the pandemic. Despite the unusual circumstances of my interview and shadowing, I knew I wanted to be part of AMP and help small business owners.

What drew you to AMP?

I studied Business Management and Marketing, and although I hadn’t planned on a sales career, I found myself enjoying it. My introduction to AMP came through a soccer teammate’s connection to Connie LaPak. The idea of helping small, local businesses rather than pushing generic products really resonated with me. I also had personal experience running a tie-dye business during the pandemic, which gave me a sense of the challenges small business owners face.

What are some of the key skills you’ve picked up as you’ve grown with AMP?

I’ve learned to communicate effectively with business owners across various industries, helping them see the value of digital marketing. Building strong relationships, even over the phone, has been crucial. I’ve also gained insights into different industries, which has helped me better understand their needs and how our products can support them.

What keeps you motivated?

I’m motivated by the conversations I have with small business owners and the desire to support them. Hearing about their struggles, especially post-pandemic, drives me to provide the best value we can, even if it means finding ways to maximize their package without necessarily upgrading.

Have you ever faced a major setback, and how did you work through that?

Working from home can be both a blessing and a challenge. Some days are overwhelming with calls, updates, and edits. I had to learn to balance my workload and rely on the team for support. It’s a team effort, not just one account manager handling everything. Finding that balance has been key, especially after a knee injury made it harder to manage my responsibilities.

What’s your biggest piece of advice for any new hire?

Genuinely caring about small business owners is essential. Forming personal connections and building trust with them makes all the difference. Also, treat every account with the same level of care, regardless of the package they’re on. Active listening and understanding their preferences help provide the most value.

Where do you see yourself at AMP in like the next 5 years?

I see myself continuing to grow as a leader and staying involved in account management and training. I’m also interested in exploring roles related to system development, as I’ve always had a passion for tech. Managing a team and working more with other departments is something I look forward to.

Reflecting on your career, is there anything you would have done differently?

I wouldn’t change much. AMP’s culture has provided a strong work-life balance, which is important in a fast-paced role like this. If I could give advice to my younger self, it would be not to stress too much and trust the process. The experience has been rewarding, and I’m proud of my journey so far.

SALES LEADERSHIP

Tanner Jaksa, District Manager for Northern Virginia

What drew you to AMP? Was there anything specific that caught your eye about the opportunity?

I was searching for a sales job but didn’t want to sell cars, real estate, or insurance. During my observation day at AMP, I saw the genuine interactions with business owners and the product’s integrity, making me realize this was something I could sell confidently. The supportive company culture and the Morning Success Calls further cemented my decision to join AMP.

What would you say is the most rewarding part of working at AMP?

I find it incredibly rewarding to work with small business owners who drive America’s economy. Hearing how AMP’s services have significantly impacted their businesses gives me great satisfaction. As a District Manager, I love helping others grow in their careers and seeing them succeed financially.

You said you started working at AMP right out of college?

Yes, I did. I was drawn to to the comprehensive training and entry-level opportunities. AMP’s thorough training helped me grow quickly, and I appreciated the clear path for advancement based on performance, not tenure or age.

How do you keep yourself motivated to continue to grow here at AMP?

I stay motivated by setting clear, tangible goals, like selling a specific amount of OPTIMA™ each week. I stay focused on daily routines, making sure to hit smaller targets, such as presenting to 20 businesses, knowing that it will lead to success. I also took advantage of resources like AMP University to stay sharp.

Have you had a mentor that really has stood out since being at AMP?

My original district manager, Joy Collins, believed in me early on and motivated me to grow.

What has been your most significant accomplishment so far?

My major achievements include setting the record for the most sales in the first month, winning Rookie of the Year in 2021, and Trainer of the Year in 2022.

What are some of the goals that you’re currently working towards?

One of my goals is to have my district reach over $100,000 in digital revenue and expand by adding an Assistant District Manager.

Lastly, do you have a piece of wisdom or insight that you would give to anyone new to AMP or sales in general?

I want to emphasize the importance of believing in the product. I believe that AMP’s support system is there for anyone willing to put in the work. Success is not about luck or experience but dedication and willingness to learn.
