About Luis A Chavez

I began my career in the real estate industry as a Porter — and through persistence, hands-on learning, and a passion for growth, I advanced into leadership roles including Maintenance Manager, Property Manager, Site Supervisor, and ultimately Director of Operations. My journey is a testament to the power of hard work and self-development — and was featured in the Amazon best-seller *\"Maintenance Man to Millionaire\"* by Glenn Gonzales, where I was described as an “Expert Learner.”Today, I’ve taken my experience from operations and property management into a strategic sales role with **United Rentals**, the industry leader in equipment rental. My operational background gives me a unique advantage in understanding customer pain points, optimizing project success, and delivering equipment solutions that drive real value.I’m passionate about building relationships, growing accounts, and exceeding expectations — and that’s exactly what I’ve been doing.**Recent Sales Achievements (United Rentals, 2022–2024):**• **Rental Revenue:** Surpassed targets 3 years in a row — up to 114.7% of goal • **Used Equipment Sales:** 159.5% of goal in 2022, 295% in 2023, 103.7% in 2024 • **Tool Revenue:** 102.2% of goal in 2023, 120% in 2024 • **ESP Account Growth:** Turned around B accounts (+16% growth) while driving A accounts (+27% growth) • **New Business:** 29 new accounts opened over 3 years With a strong foundation in **operations, team leadership, and customer service**, I now help clients succeed by aligning the right tools and equipment with their needs — with a focus on **industrial, construction, and commercial projects**.Let’s connect if you’re in the construction or equipment space — or if you simply value results, grit, and real-world experience.
