I have been a VP Sales at Lockdowel since 2010, where I oversee the sales development, marketing campaigns, and business development for the Lockdowel Quick To Assemble Hardware, a revolutionary product that simplifies and accelerates the manufacturing process. I am also the Principal at StrategyFifty, a consulting company that I founded in 2000 to help corporations and new ventures sharpen their value proposition and grow sales.With over four decades of experience in sales, marketing, and business development, I have a wealth of knowledge and skills that I use to create and execute effective strategies that generate profitable growth and customer satisfaction. I specialize in working with executives at the "C" level to uncover unexpected savings opportunities, creating outside-the-box solutions that generate exceptional savings and efficiency gains, and negotiating complex executive-level deals that move proposal ideas into bottom-line results. I have a proven track record of finding and creating opportunities with large corporations, such as Oracle, Cisco, Sun Microsystems, Bechtel, Charles Schwab, and Sutter Health. I am passionate about introducing innovative products and services that solve real problems and create value for customers.
