Initially, I was brought on part-time as a consultant in 2004 to evaluate and rescue the sales effort. The company had experienced an 18-month sales drought (2002-3) with no new accounts. Working at just 10 hours a week plus a few road trips. I landed 6 new accounts in the first six months, effectively ending the slump. I overhauled the marketing approach in 2006 while still working in a PT capacity (20 hrs/wk) and achieved a new company revenue record the same year. In September 2007, I became a full-time employee and since that time, I have set several revenue records for the company in recessionary years of 2008, 10, 11, 12, and in 13. Taking sales from $0 across 2002-3 to >1,600,000. in 2012. Working directly for the CEO and COO working with Administrators and Directors of Nursing at local health and human services departments, to assist them to navigate the complex landscape of choosing an Electronic Health Record (EHR).

We have successfully launched 130 local PH and Human Service agencies in thirteen states in the Upper Midwest and on the West Coast.
