During the time I worked with Luis Valente, I was able to see him effectively leading the Sales team, driving sales and meeting objectives. Upon his arrival, he introduced work methods and procedures that had a very positive impact. His experience has been acquired in companies that are references in pharma marketing & sales.

Luís Valente was one of the drivers of Celsis business during 2011 with significant increase in sell out sales vs LY (source HMR). Luís introduced 3 new products to the market and was also responsible for the transition of the sales structure of a new company from its previous owner to Celsis. He managed a team of 18 reps and he showed to be a fair but result oriented manager. Even though his background before Celsis was purely pharmaceutical (Rx), he showed to be a quick learner and his knowledge was expanded to pharmaceutical OTCs, nutrition, food supplements, medical devices and cosmetics (both is the areas of medical promotion and direct sales to pharmacies). He is able to make clear and accurate analysis with few, scarce information. I believe his stay at Celsis brought Luís several skills he still didn't possess and I truly hope he's able to use these learnings in his next professional challenge.

Luis is a highly skilled person, task oriented and, most of all, a goal achiever. He has a very important mix of both marketing and Sales knowledge.
