Strong sales background looking for industry change after 34 successful years as top performer. Looking for customer facing client development in industries that have would have a passion for.  Examples- sports related, construction, small start-ups, medical, auto, liquor, and food industries.  Not, insurance, roofing, financial services, door to door or pure cold calling. 

    As a top-performer at the various firms where I have worked, (top biller 4 straights yrs at Pacioli Companies, 4 straight yrs at McKinley Finance, and 3 straight yrs at SNI Financial), I have also run my own business on two occasions for a total of 10 yrs. With broad experience working with Board of Directors, CEO’s, CFO’s, COO’s, Human Resources, Mid-Management, and Associate Level personnel, I have a proven track record of building strong relationships, networking, cold-calling, electronic engagement, and fostering long-term trust with clients and coworkers.

     I have run teams of 8, hired, fired, and trained people.  I am looking for an individual contributor role that is part of a team. I excel in uncapped commission environments and am willing to work hard to test those limits.
