Summary
At the core, the question is, “will someone buy our product or service.” The answer comes from knowing who Customer #1 is in all possible segments, and having a product that is worth buying. This is what I do; find the customers and refine the product presentation, marketing, sales and training to achieve results. I take the big-picture and combine it with street-level experience at the point of purchase. I am a channel creator and brand steward, a high-level professional with more than 25 years experience in driving revenue growth, profit margins, client acquisition, and customer satisfaction. Once engaged, I apply considerable and tireless focus to achieving all goals and make relationships that endure.
