Content Strategy and Revenue Architecture - Creator of SOS (Sales Operating System), for top of funnel

I’m all about direct, data-driven lead generation. By that, I mean I turn cold emails into serious revenue machines for my clients.

With access to our database of over 280 million verified leads, I mix Firmographic, Technographic, and Persona data to create highly focused playbooks that hit the right people at the right time. My goal? Equip sales teams with a clear view of their Total Addressable Market (TAM) and a blueprint for finding the companies that need their solution the most.

It’s all in the details: open job data, employee growth (or lack thereof), social media spikes, web traffic, product launches, and tech stack investments—these indicators reveal who’s ready for a solution and set you up with messaging that resonates. When sales teams embrace this approach, it changes the game. You’re not just emailing—you’re connecting with people already facing the pain points you can solve.

I train teams to work smarter with tech that multiplies output and turns potential into predictable results. Let's make those numbers work.

With over 25+ years of experience in B2B sales, I have worked with world-class organizations such as Outreach, AT&T, and T-Mobile, and successfully founded and exited TIDAL, the leading worldwide sales development company.

The mission - to empower B2B leaders to grow their revenue and influence through content strategy and outbound, together!

I look forward to seeing you become MAGNETIC!

MAGNETIC is the global leader in Content Led Selling, guiding the B2B world into the new method of generating revenue.

I got my start sales living under a friend‘s kitchen table.

Started from the bottom, literally, now we’re here.

Stay the course.

Sales is less about being great at “selling”, and more about being resilient to handle the losses with grace in order to hang on for the wins.

i’m not always been great at that and I’ve taken the loss - at times -  pretty hard over the last 26 years.

But, over time, I’ve learned that 

- Follow Up Matters 

- Persistence can’t turn a no into yes. 

- Unqualifying is great and necessary for fast growth venture backed SaaS companies. In Service companies, you are literally there to serve.  No’s do become yes’s in time, but not if your are an asshole and disregard them quickly. 

- It is always an average. Refine, repeat. This loss doesn’t define you just like the next win doesn’t define you.

I used to put my weight in how many impressions a post would get, or how people would react to something I posted…., waiting for leads to pour in. 

About a year ago  I realized how silly that was and how damaging it can be.  

What goes up must come down and that goes for the ego as well.

Now, I rely on the quality of the work to do the talking.  

And it works, extremely well. 

Give it a shot.  Happy selling, and even happier living!

No pressure, no progress.

It’s hard to argue that pressure doesn’t motivate people in a positive way.

Balance is important.

Rest is imortant.

But pressure is the great motivator.

I have a twenty-five-year career driving revenue, inspiring people to achieve their best, training the science and art of selling, building teams and divisions, and carrying out the vision of CEOs and Presidents. I have been a record-breaking salesperson, record-breaking sales executive, and 2X company MVP. I pride myself on being a multiplier. My passion and energy are unmatched. 

Brands are built from the inside out. The best products and services only meet their true potential when  people are thriving in a growth mindset while working together in a harmonious culture. Brands that scale have experts that steward and nurture the team development. The ability to influence people to join a brand or want to partner with a brand is my true innate skill set. I have become a champion of people, promoter of brands, and elite communicator through hosting a top 5% globally ranked podcast, creating engaging content, and collaborating with influential people. My career has been spent at the tip of the spear to drive vision, mission, and people.

My pillars of success are well-defined. Mindset + Behavior + Technique = Success. I have used this foundation to rapidly scale people, teams, and brands. My next endeavor, brand, or collaboration will be fueled with these keys to success.

In the last 25-years, my efforts have been directly tied to over 250 mm in individual, or leadership revenue achievement. Every brand I've represented has scaled YOY during my involved tenure. My next team will benefit in the same way.
