I have SOLD $½ Billion, I have PURCHASED $½ Billion and I have FINANCED $½ Billion. Over a nearly 30 year career I have founded and/or been a C-Level executive at 6 companies (including Ancestry.com, Photodisc, Micrografx an others) that have successfully exited via IPO or M&A. I have had P&L for operations in 16 countries on every continent except Antarctica. High growth experience achieving forecasts 48 out of 50 consecutive quarters with annual growth rates of 125% to 1200%. In semi-retirement over the last five years, have been a high-level executive trainer/facilitator for C-level Sales and Business Acumen, Beginning to Master-level Negotiations, and other business-related topics to executive sales participants around the globe. I have also developed and delivered these programs in Japanese (in which I am fluent- spoken and written). What makes me unique is that I am THAT GUY to whom high-performance sales people are trying to sell and with whom they are trying to negotiate. My experience on BOTH sides of the sales table bring insights about which other sales "trainers" are clueless.
