About Sean Willard [Cdcp]

With over 20 years of experience in IT solutions sales and management, where I have partnered with both salespeople and tech leaders to help them develop and implement technology strategies that align with their business goals and deliver measurable results. I hold a Certified Data Center Professional (CDCP) certification and attended Purdue University in Building Construction Management.My core competencies include IT solutions development, new business development, customer relationship management, cloud computing, data center solutions, hosted solutions, and voice services. I have a proven track record of exceeding quotas, building teams, and creating innovative solutions for complex challenges. I enjoy consulting with C-level executives, global and enterprise accounts, and channel partners, and providing them with trusted and technical advice on how to leverage technology to achieve their objectives. Some of my recent achievements include securing a large contract with a Fortune 500 company for cloud migration, increasing the user retention rate by 25% for a SaaS provider, and facilitating a successful data center replication project for a financial institution.
