LET'S GET CONNECTED!
If you lead a middle market or enterprise corporation, or work in in sales, sales leadership or any sales performance improvement role, I encourage you to connect with me on LinkedIn and other social platforms. This especially includes sales enablement, revenue enablement, commercial excellence, sales effectiveness, and sales training professionals.
I also regularly connect and network with professionals working in training/learning, OD, HR, consulting, change management, and recruiting.
I review and consider all LinkedIn invitations, but if you work in any the above professions, I especially invite you to send me a LinkedIn invite for networking, supporting each other, and sharing content.
If you would like more information about my networking and connection preferences, see Contact Guidance, below, and the list of places to find my content and connect.
After his initial years on the frontline in sales and sales management, Mike spent the next 30 years as a corporate manager or consultant, leading departments and projects with one purpose – improve sales results. And through top-performer analysis, sales analytics, sales training, sales process and methodology implementations, organization effectiveness practices, sales leadership development, aligning sales performance ecosystem levers, implementing The Building Blocks of Sales Enablement and its sales systems, and leading change efforts – he’s done just that.
At one company, as a result of six projects, Mike and his team delivered an accretive $398MM in revenue, year-over-year. At another, within 9 months, newly-hired sales reps with 120 days on the job were outperforming incumbent reps with 5 years with the company. His focus is, and always will be, on how to #MakeAnImpact With #Enablement!
Contact Guidance & How I Might Help
I encourage LinkedIn invites from business professionals in my field of expertise and interest, and accept many (but not all) invites.
As mentioned above, I’m most interested in connecting and networking with others involved in all aspects of sales performance improvement.
- Connecting: I'm very busy, as I’m sure you are, but I try to help my connections in any ethical way possible. I’m a strong believer in “Pay It Forward.” (Note: I will not help you sell my connections nor will I endorse you, if I don't know you well and trust you, or if I haven't used your product or service.)
- Career Search Support: I especially try to help those seeking employment, when I can. On that topic, please read this closely before contacting me: http://bit.ly/My59DayCareerSearch
- Recruiters: I’ll always try to respond to professional recruiters (who approach me about opportunities in my field of expertise). I may not need you today, but perhaps I can help you or someone I know. I truly enjoy doing that when I can – what goes around comes around.
- Advisory Services: Please contact me if you feel I can lend a hand with my areas of expertise in sales enablement or sales force transformation, in an advisory services capacity.
- Free Advice: I publish a lot of free content in many locations, so I do not participate in “brain-picking” sessions, product review/feedback sessions, or offer free advice by email, phone, or Zoom. It's simply not fair to my paying clients. Thanks for understanding.
- Consulting Referrals: If I can’t accept a project, I will gladly refer you to someone who can help, and enjoy making introductions. I have strong partnerships in place and know many people and vendors in the space.
- Speaking: I do speaking engagements, conference presentations, webinars, panel discussions, podcasts, and interviews frequently and would be pleased to talk with you about what you have in mind, to see if I’m a good fit.
- Advisory Boards: I’m a business advisor or advisory board member for several companies and one non-profit, and am open to those discussions, if you are in the sales/marketing or learning/training field or need someone on your board who has this expertise.
