Sherry Peret I started working in the insurance industry in 1978 in Greenfield, Wisconsin. My position included new business and administrative work.In 1990 when that office closed, I decided to try something different and applied at Don Metzger Advertising. I received the position and started working in Radio and Television. I had various administrative duties. A major highlight was my husband and I doing a commercial for a client.
In December of 1991, my husband and I were blessed with a son. I decided to reinvent myself once again, so I could work around my family. I worked for Purple Heart Veterans from 1992 to 2009. That included calling hundreds of people weekly to donate to Purple Heart Veterans as well as setting up pick up times for the drivers. In 1997, we were blessed once again, this time with a daughter.
In 2004, I started working for Merle Norman. This position entailed sales, calling customers, and other services. I was reviewed twice by our home office and received an award of excellence and perfect sales both times. I still work for Merle Norman on a part-time basis.
In 2011, I was approached by the VantagePointe Financial Group office in Brookfield, Wisconsin to work for them as a New Business Consultant. I started in February of 2011. Soon, I was doing Orphan Calls and was receiving great results. As time went on, the Orphan Program became very successful.
I enjoy boating, camping, hiking, and going Up North to visit my parents. My faith, family, and friends make me truly blessed.
