Employee of the Month: Margie Sawyer
It's April and we're pleased to feature Margie Sawyer as our Employee of the Month! Working with us in Accounts Receivable, Margie is an undeniable force of positivity and tenacity. Before joining the EA team, she honed her skills of persuasion while running a dental practice with her (now ex) husband and making collection calls to clients. Her ability to get results by being firm yet kind, earned her the nickname "the velvet hammer." Read on to discover how she practices self-care, what her hidden talent is, and more!
What does your best day on the job look like?
The best day for me is when I receive monies from years ago that admin has long since written off. I never give up! Alternatively, helping my coworkers be the best they can be always brings warmth to my heart.
What advice would you give to someone interested in pursuing a career in your industry?
If you do your job as if you owned the company, your results will shine.
How do you practice self-care?
Every morning I do a 20-minute workout, enough to get my heart going. I also try to eat healthy and drink plenty of water throughout the day. This is my year to restore my health; I'm on a mission. It's only April, and a lot has happened with much more to come, so wish me luck! I feel very lucky already.
What's a hidden talent you have?
I used to compete in three-day eventing, which is a triathlon in horseback riding. The first day is a dressage test, the second day is cross-country jumping, and the third day is show jumping.
