John is a veteran change agent and sales and marketing leader who believes great partnerships are built by trust and communication. The key to being successful in business sales means always striving for your customer’s success. This philosophy has served him well throughout his career. After spending most of last 20 years building companies, industry relationships, and sales in the metals industry, John became the COO/GM of the thermostat brand re-start, Robertshaw Climate. With his previous distribution relationships, he successfully changed the wholesale industry’s perspective on that brand which lead to overall business growth.

He is bringing the same ideology that relationships build business and the “customer first” focus to his current responsibilities.

And when he is not busy building relationships in the business world, John enjoys building projects around his home.
