So- you are a sales professional, and you have an in depth
understanding of your product or solution offering? Could you explain to your grandma what your product does or more importantly what problems your product solves for your customers? I fear that for many sales people today the answer is no (if we are being 100% honest and not just giving the answer you think should be given). This is an opportunity though if you can revisit and get to the problem or problems you solve. Think how much more powerful your proposition is if it’s framed this way.

I am a highly experienced, energetic, persistent and innovative senior sales professional/sales leader and coach with 25 (plus), successful years of sales and leadership experience, developing and managing sales teams and winning new business with and through partner channels to deliver profitable revenue growth. My default approach is one of clarity, support, openness and flexibility.
I am by nature inquisitive and enquiring and whole-heartedly embrace technology that enhances our experiences. Fun is an incredibly important element of work/life for me, so whilst I am deadly serious about the business of business, I do like to work in an environment that is fun to be in.
I am very much a people person and fundamentally believe that it is the people in an organisation that make it a success or otherwise.
I thrive in teams - creating, developing and galvanising individuals into coordinated teams is my forte, and I love a fast-paced dynamic environment too, where great people challenge and ultimately deliver high-quality results for demanding customers.
I am a passionate advocate for the customer, and hold a firm belief that in the customer economy, World-Class performance is 2table-stakes" to retain (and grow) the customer base. If we get it wrong, we say so quickly and act to rectify it.
I consider myself to be a catalyst – connecting and coordinating people and opportunities. I am a motivator and inspire people to be the best that they can be through coaching and mentoring.
One of my favourite "quotes" is
Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-preserved body. But rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, with a beer in one hand, shouting "Whoo, what a ride!!"
