“Bill is the leader, boss, mentor and friend everyone dreams of working for. Over six years he has imparted decades of sales knowledge, both in pitching to prospects and clients as well as selling internally to manage team dynamics and position ideas to leadership. He knows when to challenge me vs. when to support me, when to give a little more freedom vs. when to get into the weeds to work through the details together. Most importantly, he cares and looks out for each member of his team, earning in return our trust and loyalty. More than just how to sell, Bill has taught me how to build a true team.”
