Services include

Lead Generation

Whether using traditional Marketing efforts or not the average number of touchpoints to gain a meeting is upwards of 20. I have some proven methodologies to bring that number down and get your team into qualified opportunities quicker. 

Reconnect

Trade shows are a necessary evil – to really get the best ROI you need to jump on the leads while they are hot. Typical trade show leads die on the vine because it takes too long to re-engage. With Reconnect, I engage at the show ensuring the next meeting is set to jumpstart the sales process. Marketing and sales leadership will be happy.
