About Daejona Gordon
Business Development & Program Management Professional | Grant Writing | B2B Sales | Marketing | Customer Service I am a dynamic business professional with a diverse background in grant writing, B2B sales, business development, marketing, and customer service. My career has allowed me to blend creativity with strategic thinking, focusing on delivering tangible results across various industries. Most recently, I’ve had the privilege of managing the Contractor Assistance Program at the Detroit Training Center, in partnership with the Michigan State Housing Development Authority (MSHDA). Over the course of the 15-week program, my team and I have empowered over 75 aspiring contractors and developers by providing them with the knowledge, resources, and connections needed to start or scale their small businesses. Before joining the Detroit Training Center, I served as Gallery Manager at Jo’s Fine Art Gallery, where I successfully managed a framing studio, curated art shows, and oversaw event bookings. In addition, I was responsible for product photography, client relations, and implementing marketing strategies. My experience in the arts honed my ability to juggle multiple responsibilities while maintaining a keen eye for detail and fostering relationships with customers and partners. Whether working with small businesses, overseeing customer service teams, or developing marketing campaigns, I have a passion for driving growth and supporting entrepreneurial success. I\'m always eager to apply my skills to help individuals and organizations thrive. Let’s connect!
