Summary
Growing up, I’d take apart things like our TV, which were having problems. I wanted to understand how it worked, figure out why it was on the fritz, and fix it. Now, I solve selling and revenue problems for my clients. My goal is to deliver key outcomes by building a solid foundation for sustained growth – with a plan of action and how to execute. The emphasis is on powerful strategies, actionable processes, and needed skills. But first, I uncover underlying roadblocks and determine how to blast through and win.
