Testimonials

Thanks for a great couple of days. I definitely took away at least a few key initiatives. The setting at Stratton was perfect - the food, the lodging, the meeting space. I also enjoyed the company and the participation of the other sales execs. I thought that the content layout over the two days was well balanced. Thanks again for a very practical, enjoyable and educational experience, and one that I plan to continue to learn from.
Jack Gaziano, Senior Vice President, Silicon Valley Bank

Ken and I wanted to thank you both very much for the incredible experience you both provided over that past three days of the TEN program. It was inspiring, insightful and confirmed that our efforts are moving in the right direction.

Michael J. Margiotta, CEO, eHealth Global Technologies, LLC

“It was an outstanding program.” ; “A great mix of attendees.”; “Jack himself was very credible, very engaged in the business, and tied together real life, examples & stories.”; “I would rate it very highly and would recommend other senior sales leaders at MFS t go through the program.”; “It was time very, very well spent.”
Tom Jessee, Senior Vice President of Sales, MFS

Just a short note to say thank you so much giving me the opportunity to participate in your sales optimization boot camp earlier this week. This was by far the most high value two-day session I have experienced in many years. The energy, passion and experience you brought to the session was contagious and motivating and enables open minds that certainly helped me take away some very key learnings.
Jack Zimmerman, VP Sales & Marketing, Current Analysis

It was great catching up with you this week during the Sales Effectiveness Boot Camp. I truly enjoyed the program and have already started implementing many of the tools and techniques learned during the training. I found great value in the discussion we had about building Sales Plans and Sales Process. I look forward to communicating Sales Effectiveness with my Sales Leadership Team later this month.
