Mike Jennings!
Mike is one of our many talented Project Coordinators based out of our Dallas office.
- How long have you worked in the industry and how long have you been with us?
- I have been in the power care industry for over 26 years. I have been with Power Storage Solutions for about 3 years. I believe I joined the team around the end of 2020 or early 2021.
- Where did you grow up and where are based now?
- I grew up in Grand Prairie, TX and now live in Liberty Hill, TX.
- Tell us about your educational background, family life, and hobbies outside of work.
- I am a Grand Prairie High School graduate. I’ve been married to my lovely wife Tanya for 29 years. Together, we have 3 children and 4 beautiful grandchildren. In my spare time I really enjoy hunting, fishing, and golf.
- What are 3 words that describe you?
- Loyal
- Hard-working
- Honest
- Tell us about one of your biggest success with a customer and/or within the organization itself?
- I’d have to say that one of my biggest accomplishments with a customer came when we were installing a 20,000 amp buss duct plant for AT&T data center in Allen, TX. It was a big and challenging project, but we viewed it as a learning experience and teachable moment for some our newer guys. In the end, it was a successful install and the customer was very pleased.
- What advice would you give to a newly hired salesperson?
- Get to know the products and services you are offering, even if that means doing a little research in your free time. Understand the different types of solutions like batteries, capacitors, and energy management systems. You never know how experienced a customer is in this industry, so you have to be prepared for questions that may arise. Reading manuals is a great start.
- Becoming familiar with technical specifications, performance metrics, and applications in various industries like renewable energy, grid stabilization, and backup power allows you to explain complex technical concepts in a clear and understandable way.
- Active listening is also a skill to work on. Listening to customer pain points and needs, and tailoring your pitch to showcase how your power storage solutions can meet those needs really assists in developing that relationship with the customer.
- What is your favorite part about working for Power Storage Solutions?
- Power Storage Solutions is a family and I am proud to be a part of it. We are very customer-focused and always do our best to support one another. I know that if I ever encounter a problem, there is always a support system to fall back on.
