My name is Echo Johnson.
I am part of the people team, specifically with community and engagement
I joined Progressive Leasing in 2019.
I was actually suggested to come here by one of my greatest friends.
So I took the leap.
I originally started in ops and customer service.
I made sure to tell my leadership that I was interested
in some other opportunities.
They definitely led me through the way to make sure
that I had all those opportunities to get to my goals.
So I started in the customer service, helped out with merchant support.
Then I went on into sales And now I'm
in my dream job working with the community and engagement team.
My leaders noticed that I love giving back to the community,
and they made sure that I knew about all the options that were available Making
sure that I knew that there is volunteer options, that there is mentoring options.
And that really helped me succeed.
On moving towards getting into the sales department.
My biggest advice for moving onward and upward here at Progressive Leasing
is to make sure that you let your leadership and everyone else
know that you are interested in some goals
or things that you like to do professionally and personally.
Don't let them just sit inside of you, not tell anyone because the progressive
leasing family does care about you and about what your goals are.
So the sooner that you can tell people about that, the sooner
that they're going to help you get to your goals.
