The Honest Salesperson

I have a decade of experience in new client acquisition sales, helping generate over 10 million in revenue within the recruitment industry.

Over the 10 year period, I have broken into over 100 new accounts, and trained over 40 other individuals to do the same. I am intimately familiar with the challenges and hurdles faced when building a book of business, acquiring new clients, and implementing a sales system that can be scaled as your company scales.

I bring that experience to a small number of early stage, growth focused recruitment companies.

I partner with solo-operators and owners as an advisor and mentor assisting them in their growth phase.

I help them lay the foundation needed to grow, avoid expensive mistakes, help assemble world-class sales teams, and implement a sales system that can be replicated.

If you are a small business founder/owner within the recruitment space, and you're looking for a partner to help navigate your journey, I'd love to hear from you.

My area of expertise is in direct hire and contract agencies, with average placement fees $20,000 or more.

RVP, Sales @ Bullhorn - I talk about creating systems for sellers to scale your impact, not your hours

3 years ago, I was drowning...

As an RVP at a fast-growing tech company, my life had become an endless stream of:

• "Urgent" emails
• Back-to-back meetings
• And constant fire-fighting

Waking up early and working late into the night.

My phone was always buzzing with notifications.

To make matters worse, it was taking a toll on my family.

The breaking point:

Missing my son's jujitsu belt test.

Something I'd promised I wouldn't do.

That night, seeing the disappointment in his eyes, I knew something had to change.

I spent the next year obsessively learning, developing & testing different productivity systems that would allow me to:

• Still perform at a high level
• Stop feeling perpetually overwhelmed
• End working nights/weekends just to keep up

I started creating what I called "mini-systems"

Small changes that had a compounding effect.

What began as a quest to regain control of my calendar...

Evolved into an operating system that helped me recover 10+ hours every week.

More importantly, spend more time w/ family. 

I've started documenting my learnings & "mini-systems" and now share them with others through my content and weekly newsletter The Systematic Sales Leader.

My goal is to help as many sales leaders as possible avoid the same burnout I and so many others experience through tested and proven systems.
