MEET VICTORIA MADRID, BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT REPRESENTATIVE
Experience: 15+ years
Victoria Madrid believes that in order to be truly successful -- as a company or an individual -- you must give more than you get.
“I believe in going above and beyond every time,” she said. “Customer service isn’t just a smiling face and nice attitude, it’s being able and willing to truly listen to the customer and their questions and needs. It’s about being able to help them or find the right solution for their issue on the first encounter.”
With 15 years of experience in customer relations, Victoria knows the way to get the job done is with a solid team.“What I love about VAZZO is that it isn’t just another marketing agency, promo company, or venue. It’s a family that learns and grows with each other so that we can achieve our goals. We go above and beyond the expectations of our clients.”
Victoria has a lot to be proud of -- in her career, she has helped countless people achieve their goals. But her greatest accomplishment to date is being a mom to her daughter, Ellenore.
What do you like to do for fun?
I am a self-professed and proud nerd. Every Saturday I play Dungeons and Dragons with a small group of friends who are more like family. In between, I listen to D&D podcasts. Ellie loves them, too!
